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 Poetry
Deaths entry into our lives is a shattering and unwelcome event. The feelings of pain and loss are so terrible. Yet, death is unavoidable and a part of the cycle of life. Losing a loved one, a family member, a best friend, a child....so much pain. Loved ones are left with so many questions. Why? Why did it have to happen? Why suicide? How can I go on? So many questions, so few answers.

Healing and Death
We must find ways to grieve. For without grief there can be no comfort. Often we must force ourselves to reach into our subconscious to uncover our true feelings. Only when we have allowed ourselves to feel all of our pain can we begin to face our loss and slowly begin to heal.

Poetry about Death
Poetry is a great way to get in touch with our sadness.  Death poetry has been established in many cultures and religious practices.  In Judaism the Mourners Kadish is a beautifully recited prayer for the dead that is exquisitely composed with rhythm and rhyming in Hebrew.  The Requiem Mass of the Catholic Church is a monophonic liturgical chant for the dead that has been established for centuries.  These are just a two examples of Death Poetry that help aid those in mourning.  To sit down with paper and pen, to delve into our subconscious, to expose our true feelings, to turn feelings into words, to shape words into sentences, sentences into complete thoughts into death poetry is an ancient practice to better understand the loss of a loved one.
