Most Commented Loss / Death Poems (1,049)

Should I live or should I die
Sometimes I just want to get high
Why bother to try
It's like you want to touch the sky
Knowing you can't fly
So are u on my side
Now that your in for the ride
It's to late to hide
All you can do is lie
And watch while I walk by
I can no longer stand still
Like kids on a fire drill
I'm down to my last pill
And I'm ready to kill
Nothing makes sense
This is to intense
I got a good offense
But no defense
Somebody start the Violence
I'm swerving and I ain't got no license
but I don't stop for cops
Im a criminal till I drop
And now I say goodbye
I gave it a last try
It's Impossible to me like a happy sigh
Waiting for a good sign
It's not a good time to be alive
No cpr no self revive
this is my final farewell
I know no heaven and I know no hell
So where will I go when they ring that final bell
It's hard to tell
Cause I have no soul to sell
With no God to believe in
I lost all reason
Treat this like treason
Or an infected lesion
Approach with caution
And take a small portion
Before this gets blown out of proportion
I must go
Part of me is screaming no
But it's to late
I already decided my fate
And now I'm full of lead
But This isn't a day to dread
It's a day for new love to spread
I am no longer human I am dead
Anxiety grows as I wait
I can't turn back it's to late
I was hooked now I'm the bait
I'm already the next statistic
You think I must be sadistic
I'm ready for the end
Their nothing left to mend
It's time for me to transcend
And I didn't rise or descend
My mind is no longer restricted by my body
I'm free this is more then a hobby
Do you copy
Its been a fight like karate
Hit hard like s tsunami
I am the Devine wind kamikaze
when I lived I was a zombie
Never got attention no paparazzi
As I say my final words in silence
I leave this world disembodied
In life I had no guidance
In death I showed defiance

A September night you bade Adieu
L.A. was calling...we thought it cool
To a land of sunshine and endless sand
California Dreamin'...those tanned blonde gal's
"I will be back for my Yuletide libation's...
Turner's will rock with tale's and rotations"

"Ok, see ya at Christmas Mick..your the original Beachboy!"

And then the dark cloud's brewed and gathered
The word came through....like a silent sledgehammer
A stroke 'twas said took you away
To a place we hope you still will play..
That sense of humour, that wicked grin, your tall "Blonde" stories
"Mick, that's a sin!"

The Lonely Heart's Club once more will gather
In Turner's corner your space will matter
An empty chair will cause no sorrow
Your five foot one inch frame.......your laughter

The curtain's down, the show is over
A bright light shine's....guess who's the owner?
We'll miss you Mick your YOUTH and fun
After all you're only 81...................

Mick...a Legend!

If I could bring you back
for more hour or a day
I will get you snack
coz I have countless things to say.
If I could bring you back
I'll take care of you
I will put your sacks
like I use to do.
If i could bring you back
I will stay in your side
I will never be out of your sight.

Sorry for now
I can't bring you back.
I have to find myself
in the right track.
I miss you now
and always i will.

If can bring you back
If only I could I will.

WHAT AM I LIVING FOR, WHY AM I HERE,
WHY DOES TROUBLE, ALWAYS SEEMS NEAR?
WHY DID MY LOVED ONES, HAVE TO GO AWAY,
AND LEAVE ALL THIS PAIN, IN MY HEART TODAY?
SOMETIMES I FEEL I HAVE NO ONE LEFT,
LIKE I'M OUT IN A JUNGLE, ALL BY MYSELF!
I FEEL LIKE I'M ABOUT TO LOSING CONTROL,
ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS THE PAIN,
BUT I CAN SEE THE SUN IS YET SHINING,
AND I BELIEVE IT WILL SHINE AGAIN!
I KNOW THERE'S AN ANSWER SOMEWHERE
I TRULY BELIEVE THERE IS,
I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS SOMEONE
WHO CAN WIPE AWAY MY TEARS!
CAN YOU HEAR ME JESUS??
CAN YOU FEEL MY PAIN??
PLEASE LIFT THIS HEAVY BURDEN,
SO I MAY LIVE AGAIN!!!.....LILLIE

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MIRROR

Angel in black lace
lips painted red
rises from a misty dream
high heels clicking on hardwood floor
red hair billowing in autumn breeze

Her lover waits
eyes brilliant, blue and filled with desire
face like a beautiful, ancient God
stands by a mirror
one he created with the stroke of his brush
from the dark shadows of his mind

He holds out his hand
invites her to the other side
tempting her with his sensuous song

Her heartbeat quickens
"Stay close by me." she whispers
gently touching his face
"I will." he kisses her lips
he casts his spell

His gleaming knife flashes
streaks of brilliant light reflect on steel and glass
images of demons, lovers and wild beasts
dance within the multicolored rays of light

Blade slashes the curtain
creating a portal to a world of fantasy
one that devours, twists and shreds
like feline teeth tearing through tender flesh

Her angel face glows as he leads her over the threshold
her eyes grow wide as they walk through labyrinths
where magic beings flitter by then fade into black crevices
smell of candle wax melting on delicate skin
nymphs chant love songs
devils hiss as they pass

She watches a woman bound in chains
waiting
while a tanned muscular men
adorned with mystic tattoos
slowly changes into the hawk
gray fluttering wings sprout from his back
he gathers his slave within his claws
then flies upward to a sunless sky

Angel in black lace watches the ascent
then looks into her own man's eyes
she sees heaven for a moment
then she sees hell burn within the pages of her destiny

Now they walk down black tunnel
a wolf howls in the distance
wild cats magnificent and strong
look on
hunger in their eyes

Beast and woman lie together
on lust soaked floor
murmurs of pain and pleasure
echo in a chilling symphony


Angel peers at their faces
sees the poetry in their eyes
the erotic movement of their bodies
she begins to understand the magic of this darker world
then she ventures ahead
her lovers grip on her hand loosens
then lets go

"Watch over me, my love."
she says as she turns to look back at him
"I will."
his words drift on an icy wind

Black panthers wait for his command
he nods
his eyes gleam like the moon within a starless sky
as animals take the form of men
then shift back into primitive shapes

Angel's black lace torn to shreds
they devour her naked body
murmurs of pain and pleasure
on the other side of the mirror….


SAS

Did you know that I
Had my first breath
But I didn’t make it
Just too close to death
I waved my hand
But no one could see
Hidden from you
My soul not yet free

Did you know that I
Could smile at you
One of the things
I’ve learned how to do
I wiggle my toes
Grasp at my ears
Safety surrounds me
I have no fears

Did you know that I
Took my last breath today
Never a chance
To run or to play
No I passed away silently
In mother’s embrace
Before she had a chance
To see my sweet face

Did you know that she
Mourns every day
For loss of her baby
But no words does she say
The world does not seem
To think I was here
But my mommy knows
Her treasure so dear

Did you know of a memory
Too precious to share
With a world full of those
Who don’t seem to care
I live with my mother
Perhaps only in mind
Those precious few moments
Forever will bind

Her beauty never rests,
Even though she's gone,
But as long as she's remembered,
It will shine on and on.

Do I want to live for ever
Never to grow old
To stay young and slim
Never to be old

Days will be endless
What would I do
Get married as you grow old
And out live you

A constant companion I would want
To fill my long lonly days
Of sollitude
The constant grind of living
Just to carry on

Never getting grey and wrinkled
Never being old
Never getting I'll
Imortal I have becom e

The fear of death never to happen
My constant living
To endour
This would be my curse to out live you all

I was watching you
trying to hold me up
but too late my darling
i was gone above.
You took me down,held me
screamed at me and yelped
"why do this to me woman"
trust you i thought, to think of yourself.

As if broken hearted
you cried and cried
"poo" i could smell her perfume
even on the other side.
So whats with the tears?
whats this all about?
your free to love her
i'm no longer around.

But instead each night
i hear you pray for forgiveness
if only i could tell you
i regret what i did.
but why do i know now
and not when i was there
why when its too late
show how much you care.

whats done can't be changed
but i did make you a promise
to mind and care for you
as long as you live.
It's not that i'm a loyal angel
do i watch you from above
but you my foolish darling
are still my only Love.

In the falling light mothers standing gaunt and dry while the children cry. Father's seek between the old frail and week. Ushered into the car on rail, shouts and screams to no avail.
Standing sanctimonious with shimmering signs, drops the salute the clock chimes. Engines chuff steel grinds surging along definitive lines. Destination cold and bleak as all aboard do not seek.
Musket smell awaits the arrive for the many who shortly survive. Heard away like sheep to find their false sleep. Eye's now aware as they stare soon the fade and the final glare.
Their final place hidden in disgrace. The whole world now to face.
