I carry the weight of you in my
dreams. The creeping feeling of loss
ties me to my mattress, holding
me down like a scared child.
I spend my nightmares
screaming for you.
Can you hear
me? Can
you?

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.
