In May, we have two words:

Hiraeth = homesickness for a home you can never return to

Allowed are fics up to 500 words, small poems such as haiku or tanka, icons (100 x 100px), and graphics (maximum 500 x 500px).
All fandoms, genres, and ratings are welcome. Original works and real-person works are fine, too.
Please tag your work with all relevant tags.
This challenge runs until May 31, midnight in your timezone.
