the wise words. i am long gone now.
A RubyRed Original Poem
No matter
When
Why
Or for who it is
They’ll always
find their cue.
...
Skipping over logic’s
lines
Skimming silence
too
...
Don’t think twice
Just speak your mind
Then they’ll know the
truth
...
Long deep breaths
Dry your eyes
You’ll be
back
here
Soon.

Follow your heart. And when that fails, don't force yourself to carve a path you think is ugly. The scenic route will always be waiting, even if you can't find it.

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.

I agree with you. I always prefer to go with the flow rather than forcing things to happen.
