I didn't write this...my best friend and I stumbled upon this on accident in a cemetary on a headstone when we were young....it has stuck with us ever since. We also have seen it in other places, after that experience.
This is a poem about my mothers parents...
"The dead rose" walking through the ashes hand in hand kicking through the skulls we were one a dead rose upon my grave placed there by your hands the smell of fall lingers through the fog of night can you here the cries of these damn
I wrote this se4veral years after my dad had passed
Not so long ago I buried my Uncle who was only 4 years older than I, he was my fathers youngest brother and now his older sister passed yesterday the last remaining sibling on my fathers side. So no more members exist just their children this is the way of life, so when you get that chance to love someone for real keep them close and think of your own mortality.
My mother
laughing monosyllables/ echoes / Poet, the whole city sky palely flaming & spectral bombs hitting that patch of river I see from a park bench. Sexton's psychotic breakdowns & shattered taboos pour forth from a pewter
You fell for her but, the feeling wasn't mutual, she never loved you She didn't even cry a tear heartless b*tch who took your life She's a heartless soul, and you had no self control I miss you you took a part of me away, when you chose to end
Little is noticed, less remembered. Not completely written down, and cut at the templates. What is not burned is wholly lost but for the mention in another's fragment, which is edited in the compilation and lied about in the quotation.
Fallen but never forgotten

should cate"gory" be....hmmmm....death?
I wrote this after my brother in law passed away from losing his battle with liver cancer. I made me think about my own mortality and the unknown, when it's our time.

Intending to modify the Rose,I elected to write a whole new poem to compliment "A Postcard From Heaven" which I posted in Grieving Mothers.However this poem is posted in a memorial site for the two teens who were killed nearly two years ago(?).The mother friended me on FB because of poems I posted there.She was having trouble coping and my poem helped her see her daughter's death in a different way,which is the best reward I could get.

In the memory of my late father..
To a woman of whom I never met or knew. Never knowing it was her songs I was listening to. After hearing about the things that made her life so un at ease. Makes me sad to think she is gone and hoping she is at peace. I bet she knows now , w

We have all wondered about death, and when it knocks on our door.
I know there is a rainbow for me to follow, to get beyond my sorrow. Thunder precedes the sunlight, so I'll be all right if I can find that rainbow's end. - Mariah Carey, "Rainbow" (Inspired by the above) There Is A Rainbow I know there is a r
The Day will come and I make My way to the exit. And leave World behind. The earth rotates from West to East. Our love like poetry and music. Manzanilla eyes look at me. The Day will come and I make My way to the exit. As I near the end I'

As we look in the sky above we think of the ones who shared our love we remember the time when they passed away and we think of them everyday And when we look at the stars at
Where the fist unfurls we were welcomed. Bade lay upon the timbers. Amber danced the walls, and waltzed in the eyes of the stranger. Thunderous cracks faded to echoes of crackle and spit. The tap of a boot no longer marching, dancing freely
dead deaf blind moles stagnating in murky holes shadows slinking in light's blinking a sounded tear lost in wailing memory never sets free fate's capricious decree never draw near light shadows cannot live in lit up- bright die if it
Lyrics from a French song
just something i wrote along time ago for people and family to ponder upon

Everything I need to move forward in life is denied me because I wasn`t born rich, nor am related to rich, nor auditioned for American Idol or America`s Top Model (And I don`t even like modeling), but the point is, I keep asking, I try to be cheerful, but when I hear no, we can`t help you, my self esteem plummets.

When I`m told, I`m great with kids...all I can do is cry because I lost my son, and I can`t afford to have any children now, and never will. What I want, what I dream for, what I bleed and cry for...doesn`t matter.

I had a uncle who passed away 2 years this December and I wrote this poem for him and how my family is feeling right now.
Seems like only yesterday, We were like brothers. You were bigger than me, Always watching out for me, Protecting me from the others. Meeting you here seems so real, Im sorry that its the only way. I fold my hands and close my eyes, Oh my
