Constance La France's Heartbroken Contest...17Jul 2025 ' perhaps the most unforgettable moment of young adulthood is the bittersweet taste of first love fading away...' by poet
I feel your unrehearsed pauses-- the rustle of a blue shirt in leaving a tangy ache your firm lips make, holding back cold, collected words. This rendezvous ... a slow-fire quiver an ending which has it's own interment; and outside, night wrestles with time brittle dew against my eyes, dry mouth licking an estranged bite that reminds me of your frivolity . Until sighs become hollow and stuttering like a thirst from a weltering breakwall. So it is with discovery, the trails of affection are never mine as I call you grimly,' 0 heart-breaker' while banging shells litter on the dunes as this heart shrinks from tangled lies: There is still much to learn about young passion... needles upon my chest losing you from sight like a migrant breeze... for a woman , fragile at eighteen.
