blossom in winter

The beautiful blossom falling from the trees,
reminds me of you and how you fell from me.
Your eyes beautiful like the incredible blossom,
your smile dazzling like the sun through the trees.
I miss you my love,
It's like constant winter with you not here.
Darkness and cold surround me.
I wish you were back to bring the summer,
to fill my world with your brightness again.
But you're not coming back,
you're leaving me trapped here,
scared and alone.
I love you so much.
Everytime i think of you it tears me apart,
I'd do anything to be with you right now.
Your promises broken.
Your love always hurting.
I'll never forget you.

    The emotion is there for sure; you didn't spare the readers a single thread of your pain.

    My only qualm was that, within the first 3 lines, you used the word "blossom" twice. I understand that it's the central metaphor of your poem, but repeating words so close together can be awkward. Possibly use 'flower', or a specific type, like "calla lily" to avoid weakening the poem as a whole.

    In all, though, a decent effort. Well done, and thanks for entering!

    this is such a beautifully writte3n piece of emeotion and reality. I know Im going to sound obsessive lol but it reminded me of when edward left bella in the forest. the emotion was so rich and it brought tears to my eyes as I read it. I know that if I was the person this was written about I would have been back in a heartbeat to mend the pain. beautifully written.

    Truly expressive in love's painful side.
    "Darkness and cold surround me" early on
    in the verse gives an exact imagery of
    a heart in anguish. Comparisons to seasons
    are also apt in bringing visuals out.
    I felt the opening two lines were the strongest.
    With a bit of smoothing (flow was a bit choppy
    due to the wide swings in syllable count); this
    verse would intensify with each line rather than
    just repeat what is already wonderfully expressed
    in the beginning. Blue

    Very emotional, giving a very clear image of what it is that you want to show other people. The use of a blossom in the context is exelent. Very well done m8.

    Passionate almost remorsefull

    It speaks of deep despair for a love once held close to your heart, body and mind. Yet do remember that your soul is eternal and will rise above the seamingly endless pain for such a love that was lost yet knowningly not in vain.

    Let your passion drive you to greater things here in this hell we call earth, where hearts are shattered at the speed of light in this here new fandangled world.

    I like it, I like it so!

    very sad write and who hasn't lived through this? we all have and it seems to take forever for the heart to heal. sometimes we have to put our pain down on paper... it helps us move on

    This has the yin and yang type feel to it ~ with the beauty of the blossoms ~ with the pain of what someone brings ~ in a relationship ~ Often when you love someone so deeply ~ it makes it hard to see past ~ maybe someone who will love you as deeply as you had once loved ~ I know this cause ~ I've let go of luv ~ turned my back on it ~ or even just push it away ~ knowing if I let it too close ~ I can be hurt ~ again....

    Now, I know ~ I can't close my heart to everyone ~ Sad write ~ thanks so much for letting me read your work ~ I really do appreciate you entering the "Set the bar" contest ~ best of luck to you
