Reading Passage from 'Poppies'

I pinned one onto your lapel, crimped petals, spasms of paper red, disrupting a blockade of yellow. I wanted to tell you, but I couldn’t. I was brave, I was brave. Watching you, as you walked away, I wondered if I’d ever breathe again. The poppies swayed in the breeze, whispering of loss and remembrance. Memories flickered like fireflies in the dark, fragile yet illuminating. My mind spun with questions of sacrifice, of home, and the silent tears that fall unseen. You left me with a scar, a mark of war that cannot be erased, embedded deep within my soul. I traced the empty space where you once stood, longing for your voice, a whisper of comfort amidst the chaos.
