Who are you?
Your eyes find mine so easily.
Who are you
to tell me that I'm lost?
I never searched for an answer
to questions I don't ask.
You volunteered an ending
for a road that I looked past.
My years were cardboard cutouts
but the paint was bright and new.
Who are you
to tell me what I knew?
Crystalline reflections in the glass
remind me of the moments we once had,
warped by time, but gripped within the light;
I never knew we had a chance to fight.
Who are you?
You take my hand without a flinch.
Who are you?
I think I know your voice.
Who are you
to rip away the old bandage
before I could decide that I was through?
When it comes to me, to us,
who are you?

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.
