Elegy of the Silent War: A Lover's Longing
"In the Embrace of Geopolitical Shadows, Love's Resilience Echoes Beyond the Battlefield"
In twilight's embrace, shadows unfold,
A symphony of heartache, stories untold.
Beside the graves where destinies collide,
A lover's tears in a relentless tide.
Flags flutter, but love remains unclaimed,
In the graveyard of dreams, where sorrows are named.
Through war's bitter tempest, a lone heart sails,
Yearning for whispers of love's forgotten tales.
Fingers trace letters on weathered stone,
A silent plea in a world overthrown.
In the tapestry of time, where threads are severed,
Love endures, though the world may be severed.
Echoes of laughter linger in the wind,
A ghostly dance where memories pinned.
The war may have silenced life's sweet song,
But love, immortal, echoes strong.
Amidst the ruins, where hope is scarred,
A lover's longing, a symphony marred.
Yet, in the heart's refuge, a candle flickers,
A love that transcends the world's cruel bickers

Travel Snaps Challenge Winners
Travel changes us — if we let its lessons in. It’s possible to wander the world, even to take pictures, with our eyes as good as closed, never opening to the new self that a new place might make of us. So many of the entries to our Travel Snaps challenge were by creators who really wanted to look at the world, and themselves, anew. They were all inspiring to read — and to see, because photography was an important part of this competition. To us, the ‘quality’ of the photographs wasn’t the point; it was that these images were yours. It was a reminder of how much more that can mean — certainly when it comes to personal essays — than widely available or AI images. We really loved seeing these snaps.
