Remember that dream? Dancing in the school hallway… But, was it me or was it Azucena who danced? Was it me or was it Azucena who had the dream? Or was it…? After so many years without dancing, could it have been destiny? Was it telling me to wake up? Maybe it was a message so you could get back to yourself. A compelling calling from the soul.

Let Go
You’ll leave tomorrow and not return... Will I miss you? Yes, I will, I won’t try to hide a truth that everyone knows. I'll cry for you, I'll pull my hair and cry for you, miss you forever and all the good things you gave me. But I’ve grown, matured, it’s time to let you go and begin a new stage in my life. I have to be myself again, the real me, not hiding under the veil of you. And I will know for ever that once without you, better things will come.

FPS: The Last Flame Challenge Winners
Welcome to our first Winners Announcement of the year and to the final challenge in the Fall Poetry Series. The Last Flame invited writers to sit with endings, using fire as a central image to consider what remains when something burns out: ash, warmth, memory, silence, or the faint promise of what comes next. The strongest pieces treated endings as gradual rather than sudden, allowing them to flicker, dim, and linger.
