Heavenly Death
The sweet sound of death
murmmurs in my ear
Looking skyward, tears
glimmering in my eyes
softly blurred clouds
fill the sky, rain falls
on my tear smeared eyes
footsteps stop ascending
skyward
I mourn for the wasted life
I am
The slow rolling of the waves
in the distance call my attention
away from the cloudy sky
then all stops as my world
ends, forever has not been long
my suffering has ceised
The sweet sound of death murmmuring
in my ear
makes eye end
so remeber me,
is all i ask

This piece is very dark and not exactly my favorite type of poetry. You did an excellent job of expressing your feelings in this piece though. I hope everything is alright with you and if you need to talk about anything, please e-mail me.






When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shodows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face...

William Butler Yeats

This is interesting, I like how it's written.  I wonder why you think you've had a wasteful life??  This is the kind of poem that really gets thoughts moving in my head, nice work.

Ah yes, dark poetry. Very depressing. I hope you are ok....if not....feel free to e-mail.....well ANYBODY! Everybody here at passions is willing to lend a listening ear.
Hope all is well!
