Best And Then You Die Poems

Life is hard and then you die
in the meantime you mostly cry
It seems to me that you have been changed
your attitude somewhat rearranged
 
The place you've been is not so nice
and a terrible place to seek advice
All who go there have had a hard life
full...

THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
The Rue St. Germain is alone and still   
though cool is the night with a summer chill
the fog from the Seine comes right up the hill
and street lamps dance the whole night through.

Their halos aglow in the night time...

my soul is the shape of a bloodstain
poured there by Nadine Maraschino
my right eye sits
in the ruby voodoo goblet
that she wears upon her head
Nadine was a 3-toed egg laying harpy
from the cauldron of shame
but she used her brain cleverly
with candor and anti-obfuscatory ardor
it was the...

Sometimes I think that life's a bummer  and then you die.............
Then other times I think was that me or some other guy..........
Because in reality life isn't all that bad............
And i'm thinking if I really do think that way it would be pretty sad......
And every...

Why are you always in such a hurry?
Here you dart, there you scurry

as if someone is chasing you,
a ghost behind in hot pursuit.

This life is meant for gentle going
tasting each moment while knowing

that when all you do is rush on by
life soon is past and...

Promises brake like shattering glass
The night cries out for the light
Stars replaced with water droplets
Friends you thought you had were never their
Just reflections in the merrier
Can't catch smoke with finger grabs
And when is all said and done
You remember the real reason you when numb
You cried...

Can you see the people moving?
Do you see them fighting?
Not with their arms and fists, stupid,
Rather with their minds and thoughts.

“Life is short and then you die”,
Thumps through a pair of headphones.
The owner isn’t smiling, rather scowling, or impasse.
I stay seated on my park bench,
And...

Time goes by in the blink of an eye.
First you're born and then you die.
What happens in the in between 
  is the real scene.

How we think and how we feel
  is framed by what we think is real.
We may be wrong.
We may...

I hate the situation I'm living I don't like it at all. I learned from my mistakes I got scars from all my falls. I learned how to take a lost and cover up all my flaws. I have felt so uncomfortable because of the...

An individual's death is as unique as the life which preceded it,
but the way the body shuts down is always the same process.
When your brain has determined that there is something fatally wrong,
your brain then shuts down all but your body's most important life giving...

I go to the wall and I see your name

As I crouch in the corner I know there is no one to blame,

This is life you are born and then you die

As I stare at your picture it makes me cry,

There is nothing in this...

Anyone who’s seen my face, could look at me
and tell of my sadness
Anyone who’s heard my voice or read my words
would call my life absurd,
I long to feel gladness.

If you look inside my heart 
you’ll see who I truly really am and
if you also have...

It’s a cold, cruel world out there
  I’ve heard such words, meant to scare

Yet when inside my home, in here
  with family dear there is no fear

Life is tough, and then you die
  I’ve often heard this plaintive cry

Yet on the Sabbath...

Summoned by the sunlights song
Silenced at an early age
Dishevelled and displaced in teenage days
Driting in and out of adulthood

Living life within my shell
And cursing those who dare to dwell
Being taught by lifes endless punch
And never let rules rule my way
The end is closer than the...
