The photograph lies in pieces, cracked and torn,
Like shattered memories, on a cold, hard floor.
Two faces smile, frozen in youthful grace,
But the joy in their eyes, has vanished without a trace.
Each shard reflects a fragment of time,
A stolen kiss, a whispered rhyme.
Sunlight on beaches, laughter in the breeze,
But the space between them, filled with empty seas.
Fingertips trace the edges, sharp and unkind,
Aching for a story, words left behind.
Can these pieces mend, the image reborn?
Or will love's tapestry, forever remain torn?
If you enjoyed it, please like and follow for more!

Lila's Legacy: The Wisdom of Eldergrove
Among a sacred and enduring forest, Eldergrove village, a tiny one, was situated. The villagers were humble, and they closely lived with the nature to which they returned what they owned by the nature and took only what they required. Not far away from them was a young woman named Lila, who all trees could describe their language into her ears. A kind and gentle heart was her own, she has every soul in her hands. Then, one incredible afternoon, Lila was moving past areas that she had never wandered that far before, and she discovered a hidden glade mysteriously bathed by golden rays. The most beautiful tree had its limbs spread out at the heart of the grotto and its silver leaves that glittered in the sun rays. Upon her arrival, she was greeted by the sight of a small leather bound manuscript entrapped in the root clusters, carefully wrapped in the foliage that was the color of emerald, and adorned with intricate patterns of gold. Gloriously, she raised the volume with her heartbeat exactly the same and opened it. Through this sentence the character's bond with the book became stronger. Thus, the first sentence reads, 'She was silent, barely a whisper.
