✨ Story Description ✨

*"What Is Life?" by Tunwase Omotayo is a poetic journey through the fleeting nature of existence, the vanity of earthly pursuits, and the eternal hope found in Christ. The poem begins with haunting imagery - life as a cloud, a shadow, a market, a seed - fragile and temporary. Yet, it doesn't stop at the despair of life's emptiness. Instead, it unfolds into a message of faith, reminding us that without Christ, life is but a desert and an empty shell.

Through vivid metaphors and heartfelt reflection, the poem paints life as a battlefield, a classroom, and a sacred journey. It calls the reader to walk in obedience, remain watchful, and cling to the hope of eternity.

At its heart, "What Is Life?" is not just a question - it is an answer. It is a testimony that true life begins only in Christ, where storms are calmed, nights turn into mornings, and the soul finds everlasting rest.*All Rights Reserved

Or will she find that moving on was what she was meant to do? -------------------------- "Declan." He smiled a weak smile as he looked to me. He looked as though he had been beat up and hurt. "Told you I wasn't leaving you." I turned quickly throwing my arms around him and pulling his body to mine. "But your dead." I remember the house on tv blowing up. "That was just to throw them off. We all got out alive and safe." I pulled him to me once again just over joyed that he was here with me. "Don't do that ever again." I pulled back holding his face in my hands. "I can't lose someone I love."

"Things I Never Said Out Loud" by LIA12WREN

This is not pretty poetry. These are truths I was never taught to speak. Here lie the words I swallowed, the pain I buried, and the questions they told me not to ask. For the unheard. For the unseen. For the ones who feel too much in a world that tells them to feel less. I write for you. I write for me.
