Last Commented Loss / Death Poems (1,049)

A fully weaved dream
becomes complete,
i commit suicide, not life.
I hear strings producing a sad sound,
a tragic play,
the lead role claims death.

Is there color when u wake in pain?
Behind that charge of lament,
you will not remember me.
And it is there
you find yourself in a chair
clinging to your fears.

If i should die
will you mourn for me?
If i should act death
will you be sympathetic?

In the realm of eternal sleep
pain is removed,
tears to vapor,
and the body to clay.

Deep darkness has no sound,
no movement,
no remorse,
and light is swallowed whole.
Should I care?

She sat waiting content in her place
Eyes moving like a pendulum
Knowing soon he would enter her lair
He should of heed her words not warning
Now it would be she he face
Town folks parting to give him way
Smug he was thinking they cower to him
A man of great importance to himself
Crossing the bridge into the boggy marsh
Pudgy hands itching to make beauty lay
Smelling his aroma as he entered her lair
Lips turned up at thoughts of avenging
Tall and statuesque age only defining beauty
Tonight she would be the one sated
Avenging the one for whom she care
In a flash it was over and blood lay spilled
Eyes large no life still looking in fear
Removing her prize from greedy paws
Arm circled protecting little woman child
The beast now lay killed
Town folks going about their day
As if the night had never been
Woman sweeping porch floor clean
Aged with soften beauty
Calls little girl child from play
Night time had turned to day
And monsters are gone away

I walk amongst the twilight shadows
I want to cry, but I cannot
I want to howl and let my emotions loose
But they are tightly encapsulated within me

How do you say goodbye to your father
When he does not acknowledge death
When he believes that he will live
But sadly he will not

I turn back to walk into the hospital
The long corridor and up the stairs
To the room where nurses are buzzing around
The final farewell and the long vigil

Sitting in a city station.
Awaiting death.
Death of a loved one,

One,
So very close to me.

Departure,
viewed in many forms.
Crowds ticket the office staff window.

A return ticket in (my) pocket.

In her hand,

A one way ticket to the grave.

17/06/13.

I'm no one special according to me.
There's a hopeless gap in this esteem.

Fluttering and flitting about
I'll say my lines, while you figure out-

What could come next?

Like a blind prophet somewhere
In the middle of a sand storm.

I could say that I don't care
But we both know how this heart's worn.

So what is there left to say
When you're reading my future?

Rain drops end with today,
Death's voice is loud- so we mute her.

It was but a moment
It had to be...
I saw you and you saw me... I tried to speak
No words came,
Then you were gone
But yet etched on my brain.

Don't know what it was all about,
The fight, the quarrel,
I think I heard the shout...
But didn't even turn around
As I let you walk out.

I felt you leave, rather than see
And when the cold started seeping through
Me
I snuggled more into my coat of pride
Bitter words and turmoil inside

Then a bell from far away
Brought me
Back to today
I let it ring ding a ling
Didn't care for anything.

Later that night
Flashing lights, like a magnet drew me from bed
And with words that sounded cold
They said to me You're dead.

I couldn't scream...
I couldn't speak
The coat of pride that felt like fleece
Now feels like a threadbare sheet.

It is now four years since that night
But now it's time to say goodbye...
Step away from the past, face the future
With victory's torch burning bright I say to you
my love...
Goodbye.

~Never Forgotten~

Yesterday has been and gone,
With the exception of fragment traces you have left behind,
Yet with each dawn your memory seeps the new day upon me.

Your laughter like the sun warms me,
Your voice a beautiful melody that sooth's me,
Your touch,although out of reach,is felt in my surroundings,
Your tears are my tears and often stain my cheeks.

I know God took you home to rest,and that your doing finer then best,
That gives me peace,everlasting like the memory of your life,
Thats forever branded my soul,my heart,and my life,that forever is a part of your life,
Never forgotten!
I LOVE YOU MUM!

On the ocean the preditor waits
Her iron skined hull
Waiting for her pray
Eight or more fish waiting for her tubes

Her torpedoos active and waiting
Waiting for the order from the obersumfureher capitain
Her killing fish waiting to kill

Tankers
Destroyers sailing passenger ships her orders she will obey
To sink many ships today
From the nazi leader she will obey

In herduty for the fatherland
The u boats will obey

My life wire is swaying from side to side
Trying to keep myself above water
At times I am flying with the kite
- Only to drown again later

Sitting somewhere between the times
In the now and yesteryear
Life has not been easy minded on committed crimes
Since coming back from Middle East I have stayed clear

No more noises of the dead and decay
Just in my head like a parasite they stay

Days are done and gone of unbelievable inhumanity
but now existing I am merely for my own sanity

Soldiering on day in and day out
Trying to makes sense what life now is all about

Life goes on behind the daily mask
I portrait with laughter to the task

They told me C.P.T.S.D will be your friend second to none
Always be with you and never gone

Mirror, mirror on the wall
When you ready next again to fall?
