An energy
An intention
Your shot at redemption,
It’s power
It’s healing
And will have you kneeling,
As ego attaches
your mind is sent reeling,
Desperate to hold
onto this feeling
But if you put it first,
And value virtue,
It will rest in the space
heartbreak carved
into you

Written for the Vocal Challenge below. Sadly it won’t be a contender as my subscription lapsed, but I still wanted to take part! A brevity challenge for capturing the essence of love? Irresistible to me 🥰😘

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.

"Your shot at redemption." Are those words ever true! Appreciative of your writing and sharing, Kayleigh ✨
Absolutely wonderful! 🩷 Stunning piece that captures so much about love in such a restricted word count! Shame it can't be entered and your subscription lapsed (mine's likely doing that when it's time to renew) would have loved to see this with a fair chance in the challenge! 🩷
I love the title.
Aww so lovely. 🥰 Sorry that your subscription went away before you could enter. It’s hard to resist writing a love poem.
Very lovely, Kayleigh. <3

Such a beautiful reflection on love’s power, vulnerability, and the importance of virtue. ❤️
Wonderfully written ❤️

Nice work, loved the ending!
In the space that heartbreak carved, I especially loved that. Wonderful poem!
It's a shame as this was a great love poem, Kayleigh.
