Most Commented Loss / Death Poems (1,049)

Trapped in your mind,
A wall of loneliness,You hid behind.
Your heart was big,
Your world was unkind.
Outside your head,
You could not reach,
Even with your power of speach,
you tried your best to us to teach,
How we could insight,
Your inner light....

Inside Your world of loneliness....


You had your good days, you had your bad,
You felt diabolic, your world was sad.
You brought me in, I felt so MAD,
Your beauty way beyond compare,
Your mentality,
Trapped,
Behind your stare,
I told you I would always be there,
But you locked your-self in, way beyond compare.

Inside your world of loneliness....


I saw your mind, when sleeping eye's stared,
You left your body,
Back at you,,,, You dared.
The devil, to him, you'd let a shout.
Come out you Bastard !!.
Come out, Come out.
A fight you flared,
When deamons dared....

Inside your world of loneliness....


And all the time I held you tight,
I cradled you from night, to light.
But still your deamon, you had to fight.
In my arms of comfort,
No delight.
Sadness being your guiding light,
You lost,
Inside my arms I'd hold you tight.

Around your world of loneliness....


You had your batchelors and your Masters,
A Teacher's career,
Your future disasterous,
A party,
Celebrating,
Your coming diploma.
The L,S,D, induced your coma.
From college in Germany,
Back to Mayo.
Broken hearted, your Parents,
Thier son, they don't know.
Into the mental home you'd to go,

To meet your world of loniness....


A knife in your chest, you pushed in so far,
You said to the Devil,
I'm driving, My Car.
I'll bring you to heaven,
Way up past the stars.
You'll meet your creator,
He'll crush your demenor,
I'll get you, You Bastard,
I'll kill schizophreina,
You left us that day,
with the blood on you chest....

Now you're in a world Tom,

Of your Happiness.....

Death, who are you ?.
Why do you have to call.
Why take the ones we love so much ?,
Why do they have to fall.

Death, Who are you ?,
Come and show your face.
Do you think that you are being kind,
That you are showing us some grace.

Death, are you invisible ?,
Do you wear a cape.
Well, drop your hood, come on you thug,
And show us all your face.

Death, IF I could see you,
I'd hunt you to the kill.
Then you could not take, the ones we love,
And brake our hearts at will.

Death, go away and stay at bay,
Leave us for a while.
We want more time with our loved ones,
More time to capture thier smiles.....

His gaze earnest. searching,
His hands gently caressing mine,
like morning dew upon the September grass..
He spoke to me in the quiet whisper
of a sofly blowing steady breeze,
As the sun came up, and brought to life
lazy stretching branches on the trees..
then beckoned me, with a smile,
Come be with me, is all I heard,
though in reality..
Not a single word,
Like a song,, a whisper in the wind..
Saying come be with me..
let us please begin..
And so I followed,
succumed to everything that was
And all that was meant to be..
And in that moment ,
I was set free.

Mum the pain just won't go away,

before you died the sky was blue,

now it's constantly overcast and grey,

I’m left with unsaid things to say to you.

Memories torment me the most,

alone now in the world with no one to cuddle,

a chilled breeze passes through me like a ghost,

standing by your grave my tears form a puddle.

Nights draw in I hear the steely wind shudder,

ravens gather in groups of black I hear them shriek,

I’m adrift on the ocean of life without any rudder,

or if you like without a paddle up the creek.

Mum you were the only one who cared,

no one else really understands,

laughter and life we both duly shared,

alone now I’m left wringing my hands.

Things that remind me of you are all around,

echoes of your footsteps make me twist,

respite from this sadness I have not found,

as long as I breathe you'll be sorely missed.

I just cannot seem to relate to another,

my heart is crushed like a damp flower,

the agony of living without a mother,

makes the honey of life taste really sour.

Strangers pass without any notion,

just a constant moving blur,

I wish I had some fantastic magic potion,

to hide my grief and pretend I didn't care.

The dust of time slowly swirls about,

life around me just spins out of sight,

in the darkness of my dreams I just want to shout,

hoping my mother will tell me it'll be al-right.

Come unto me the reaper who sows my grief,

in the quiet when thoughts abound,

you've taken my mother like a thief,

she left this world without any sound.

Without my mother I no longer feel whole,

my life is a jigsaw cast aside,

return unto me my life my soul,

so in the shadows I no longer have to hide.

Sandy miles I have walked
Trying to sort all my thoughts
Why God took you away from me
Just something i couldnt see

I knew your pain felt your darkness
To live you took the risk
How i ache to touch you once more
but God well He showed you the door

I understand Now that i am alone
That heaven is now your home
You were my love my wife my friend
In time we will love again

WATCH, LISTEN
Watch the sea!
Listen to the music!
Wait a minuit!
Pebbles!
Listen to the silence!
Wet jeans, gurgles, laughter,
Sky,
Eyes that sparkle, eyes that laugh,
Colours.
The water washes the pebbles,
Sunshine created the colours,
Brown feet splash, making marks in the sand.

Dash across, watch the sea!
Will it catch you and later free?
Grabbing hands, laughing eyes, her jeans are wet up to her thighs,
Gurgles, crashing, spirited waves,
White washing foam, and we were in it.

Watch the sea,
Listen to the music,
listen to the silence
Between

A cry in the night with a startled awakening
A cold sweat and an uncontrolled shakening
Worried of a cherished loved one
Fears of their health and what is to come
We think the worst but prey for the best
But our misgivings make us a pititful mess
It is what makes us human ...could be much worse
This humanity which is both a blessing and curse
Gives us stress and changes our course
Confuses our mind like an unknown force
But gives us caring and the ability to love
Fond memories strived for and won
It is what makes us human...could be much worse
The ability to care and worry are both a blessing and curse
Any yet it is what it is and most of us
Would have it no other way
The good with the bad
The happy with the sad
It is peoples range of feelings that
Makes life both horrible and fantastic
The alternative is a clinical anestetic option
With no feelings that would simply leave us numb
It is what makes the good times great
and awesome by comparison
So grab life with a vengeance and
Do your best to help others, knowing
There are valleys of darkness between the peaks of bright
Weather the storms but live for...... the sunlight

I GUESS YOU GET TO UNDERSTAND WHEN A PERSON TURNS THIRTY
YEAH MAN THIRTY AND DIRTY
BUT AGE IS JUST A WALL TO WAIL
WHILE BUIDING A FOUNDATION NAIL BY NAIL
HAMMERING WITH PRECISION AND VERY WELL AIMED
"IT IS MINE AND IT IS DONE " YOU PROCLAIMED
UNTIL YOU REALIZED A CONFLICT OVER THERE
AND BEING OLD AND GETTING SICK WOULD BE FILLED AND DEFILED BY FEAR
IF ONLY OUR FUTURES COULD FLOAT WITH ANGELS ON A CLOUD AND A FEATHER
YET AND SIILL EVERY DAY OF YOUR LIFE IS LIKE MORE FIGID WHETHER
I DISAPPROVEE OF THE MAJESTY IN HONESTY AND ITS PLOT
SO MAY I JUST LAY DOWN AND DIE IN THIS VERY SPOT?
FOR EYES TO FAIL, YOUR LEGS OF RUBBER MADE
AND WITH EVERY HEARTBEAT YOU BEG YOUR SPIRIT SOON TO FADE
BUT THEN THERE ARE DAYS WITH ENDLESS AFTERNOONS WHEN AGEEDNESS SCREAMS IN YOUR EARS
SIMPLY TO MULTIPLY THE FEARS
YOU KNOW WHAT?...... I DON'T THINK I LIKE THAT A BIT
AND THE LAST ATTEMPT AT GREAT SUCCESS IS REPLACED BY LEARINNG HOW TO KNIT
SO I YEARN TO DO THAT WHICH MILLIONS OF PEOPLE HAVE DONE WITH COURAGE, THE WILL AND A VOW
TO END MY FUTURE IN THE HERE AND NOW
BECAUSE I WILL NO LONGER FEEL AS IF I HAVE NOT THE MEANS TO WONDER AT THE SUN
AND IN THE DARKENSS OF GROWING OLD THE MOON BE DONE
BUT NO ONE HAS THE POWER OVER A CLOCK WITH GOLDEN HANDS
AND UNDERSTOOD IS SUDDENLY THE FACT THAT THE UNIVERSE AND CONFIDNECE HAVEFINALLY BEEN ALLIGNED
AND THEN YOU GET TO THE POINT WHERE ONE IS WISE AND KNOWS WE WEREN'T MEANT TO BE CONFINED
THEN I SEE I A ROPE AND AN EXIT WORTHY OF DEATH
HANG BY THAT ROPE WITH MY THROAT RESTRICTED OF BREATH
OR, WHEN THE DEEPEST EMOTION OF DARKNESS HAS BEGUN
PERHAPS THAT IS THE TIME FOR THE STAGE DIRECTOR TO CALL FOR THE GUN
BUT HERE IS MY CONUNDRUM I CHOOSE TO CALL CONFUSION
I AM AN INCONSISTENT AND TAWDRY CONCLUSION
BUT I CANNOT SUMMON THE WILL TO DIE
AND NEVER KICK THE CHAIR
DO I MAKE MYSELF AMPLY CLEAR?
I WANT TO DIE BUT I AM AFRAID TO GO AND RUN FOR THE GUN
AND THEN THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO DECIDE WHEN ENOUGH IS ENGOUGH
BECAUSE AT NINETY YEARS OLD EVERYTHING IS ROUGH
THE ONLY THINGS LEFT ARE RELICS AND REMEMBRANCES OF DANCING DOWN
BROADWAY WHEN OUR FACES WEREN'T WITHERING AWAY BY WRINKLES WORN
AND ALL THE FABRIC OF UNCERTAINTY WE HAVE TORN
YET MY FRIEND FROM DOWN THE BLOCK DID HIMSSELF IN AND HIS NAME WAS HOWARD
AND I WAS ALIVE
STILL TO STRIVE
YES HE DID, HE JUST KICKED THE CHAIR IN
DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE KNEW IT WAS A MORTAL SIN
SO NOW I ASK, BETWEEN ME WANTING TO DIE BUT NEVER ABLE TO KICK THE CHAIR
OR THE MAN WHO WANTS TO KILL HIMSELF AND DOES LIKE HOWARD,
I ASK YOU, WHO IS THE BIGGER COWARD?

Hi mom, what's up dad
I finally made it here
This trip will be brief
For I've had quite a year

Last thing I remember is..
Flipping in the air
And I caught a glimpse of the people I hit
The girl playing in her booster chair

I remember the lady too
She'll be here soon
Her trip is longer than mine
And her daugter's too

I'm sorry I let you down ma
I'm so, so sorry dad
But when y'all left out of my life
I turned from good to bad

I dropped out of college
And left a prominent career
Secretly my successful future
Soon became my fear

I loved to party hard
And loved loved to party long
I'd get drunk with all of my friends
And make up crazy songs

I knew I made a grave mistake
My said just call a cab
As I ripped the keys from my pocket
I thought of the time I had

I watched as my front end gave
I was crushed into a pulp
That other place is calling now
I love y'all but I got to go

there's a blanket of flowers around my love's grave
left by all the kind people whose love could not save
the sweetest of souls
now my heart's grown cold
so I stumble away
tears blinding my sight

I recall all the times that we laughed together
I didn't think then, that they'd ever end
then when all the stars fell
I went straight to hell
'cause she died for no reason
no reason at all

when a person has found the love of their lifetime
and she gets snatched away in the blink of an eye
nothing more can be done
no reason for living
I've decided to join her
and just go away

no more recalling the times that we were together
I'll just get off here, I think it's my stop
if I can't be here with her
I won't be without her
and we died for no reason
no reason at all
