My Saint of Heart

It feels so wrong, Yet feels so right. Soul of heart in battle, Yet something I cannot fight. My soul feels weak, My mind is screaming. My spirit collapses, My heart is bleeding. Soul shall withdraw, A war I cannot win. A saint that I am, Yet committed a ..........

The Story's End

Do you Know the girl Who walks alone? The girl so sad she's practically dead. Do you know the girl dying for someone To mend her broken heart? While you walk past her snickering You don't know it's going to be a bloody night. And when you walk past her she's left in the ..........

The Sun Casts A Smile On The Generous Earth

Death Poems: 51-60 of 80

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.
