The Story of My Resilience: A Light in the Dark
I wrote the story of my survival while waiting for someone who never came back.
I kept my word, and I stayed true,
But the one I waited for—was never you.
I wrote the story of turning my life around,
In every struggle, a new strength I found.
I lit a lamp in the deepest of night,
Yet, you remained hidden, far from my sight.
I waited for you, through the silence and pain,
But you chose to vanish, like mist in the rain.

The Art of Silence: Whispers of a Broken Heart
In the middle of a crowded street, I stand, A ghost with a pen in a hollow hand. We speak in echoes, we smile for show, But where do the tears of the midnight go? We build our walls with bricks of gold, To hide the stories that remain untold. A thousand "friends" in a digital space, Yet not a soul to touch your face. But even a star needs the dark to shine, And these broken pieces are purely mine. For in every crack where the light leaks through, I am finding a version of me that’s new.

Mismatch Challenge Winners
Blending genres isn’t about stacking elements side by side. It’s about what happens when two sets of expectations refuse to cooperate. The strongest entries in the Mismatch Challenge understood that tension and leaned into it. Rather than smoothing the edges, these stories let their chosen genres complicate one another, creating friction that carried through voice, structure, and consequence.
