they think it was you to blame
for all the pain and heartbreak that came,
the reason I will never be the same.
but it was never your name
that had to be in great shame,
for I should proclaim
that I was the only one who played the game.

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.
