Poem Submission by Bless Mycho Jamil

Below is my unpublished poem written along with the theme Spring. Hoping that this poem will suffice. Thank you

"The Beginning Of An End"

Lost in thought, I lean my back on the trunk of a tree

The petrichor emanating from the grass,

The psithurism resonating in my ears,

They remind me of who we used to be

A gush of cool and humid breeze 

It scintillates an epoch of our days

The days where I witness your brightest smile

As you link your arms to mine

This pain that shackles my heart,

It's beyond what words can describe

The pain runs deeper

Like the roots of a winter rye

The scent of dewdrops and sunflowers

Is the ambience you bring as you embrace me

Yet now they remain evanescent

As you are now beyond my reach

Tulips and daffodils, they spring anew

Hawthorns and thistles, they abound;

I don't need to cry my eyes out

For the skies are doing it for me

As I face the dawn of spring,

I cling onto a tiny ray of hope

A hope of starting over again,

With you, smiling by my side

But you carved it in as you left,

The fact that this, my love,

Is the beginning of an end,

The end of our world.
