With Gratitude to Our Writers:

(The hearts behind the heartbreaks)

Unfinished Verses exists because of the brave, beautiful minds who dared to write about love that was never returned, endings that never arrived, and emotions too deep for closure. Each story in this anthology carries the quiet ache of what was felt but never fully shared — and for that, we thank you.

To all the writers who participated in the May 2025 Writing Competition, your honesty, passion, and storytelling have left an indelible mark on every page.
