“The sound of cleats on tiles...” by Joseph Baduria

Familiar faces all wished me luck as I continued to walk past with my cleats making that same noise when a person cracks their knuckles after writing a 3-hour exam. Or, the tight squeeze and twist of bubble wrap in the hands of an excited child. Or maybe even the popping sound of a heavy pick-up truck driving along gravel as the rocks shift, clicking and clacking against each other, beneath the rubber tires.

"One day" by Krishni Thava

You left me, everybody, You’re an everlasting memory, like a poppy As I sat in front of your grave stone I felt alone Thoughts of you raced to my head, Like the things you said, “Love is just a shout into the void” “The sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have, but I know when there’s a storm there’s a rainbow to follow after… and in a world full of a hate, there’s still my love for you.” I felt the tingles in my stomach as I whispered, “I am in love with you too” And I live life in the memory of your love Hoping that one day it will no longer be just a memory.
