An Unlikely Hero
An Unlikely Hero The dawn erupted in a shower of orange and gold Greeted by a sleepless eye, huddled on a bench against the cold. A tattered jacket'a filthy hat'a soleless shoe. His was a name that no one knew. Beside him lay a bottle, it had become his only friend. He tipped it back, ..........

The Day I Died Inside
The silent car ride, The tearful eyes The day I finally died inside. The blood soaked wrist And the glistening knife Were the things that Should have ended my life. They rushed me off To the hospital that night A place for people Who lived in fright The horrific white ..........

Until Tomorrow
So I must wait until tomorrow you see the news coming so unexpectly, The night she told me you where gone, I thought surely I couldn't carry on.

EUTHANASIA (Ariels Cross)
Sipping herbal tea,I sensed your tension You ask if I would pray with you this time I knew this be the night you ask The Angel To descend upon your sleep;Lift this cross If I only had one wish I'd take your place I shivered when you whispered;It was time But true to my commitment to your ..........

Suicide
If I'm dead and in the grave, will you still love me? If I look up, will I see the flowers you left above me? When the worms begin to feed again, it feels like when you loved me. When decay becomes my closet friend, will you be thinking of me? I feel so alone since those days are gone when ..........

Death Poems: 21-30 of 80


Read Death Poems

If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.  Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever.”  This death quote expresses how to keep those lost loved ones still alive in our thoughts and our hearts.  Death poems keep the lost love alive in memory.  Lost love poems and romantic themed literature sometimes deal with the tragedy of death between lovers and add to the drama of the story such as Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet.  Death is considered from many cultures and religions in many standpoints from around the world.  Death is a part of our lives and we deal with the death of a loved one, discuss the religious or philosophical significance of death, and death poems bring out the realization of the lament of the tragedies and accomplishments in the process of dying and try to explain life after death.

 

One can reflect and reminisce over the memory of the lost loved one through death poems.  They can help ease the pain and confusion that is in the aftermath of the tradedy of a lost love one.  In fact there is romance to be found in many love poems about death of loved ones, like William Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet.”

 

How do people fill in the void and depression once a loved one passes on?  The ramifications of death are a blow to anyone.  Death is celebrated, embraced, and feared throughout the world.  Death poems are found in customs, traditions, and ceremonies in reaction to death around the world.  They help with coping with the confusion and disarray left in place of family death or close friend now gone.  One will find in religious poems ways to help cope with death such as in Latin liturgy with “Media Vita” and the Jewish Mourner’s Kaddish prayer.

 

It is often hard to express sadness and bring it out to the open and sad poems about death offer avenues to do so.  Death poems are one antidote to help.  Move forward from the depression and sadness that one may feel after their loss.  Poems about death allow people to readjust and realign when the fact of life turns and strikes, that life is temporal.

Family Poem of the Day

JUBILANT FATHER

His face is like a sun, warms the moon beside him.
She´s grown full; tonight begins the waning.
The tide pulls through her very bones,
her form aches as each wave crests.

The earth pulse, heavy, blood warm within her
Beats new chords, old sun god chants.
"You are the first mother and the last,
all spring flesh has traveled through you."

Aztec plumed and gold beaded,
your priest kneels at the holy alter,
gathers each salt pearl shed, nectar for his sacrament.

You are the temple,
we pilgrims swept through the gates,
bent figures know the scent and petals of your presence,
spread our arms to harvest blossoms,
and your priest, sun struck, kneels beside you.
