Best Deathly Poems
Sweet Deathly RoseOh, mild flower I chanced to meet,
A ruby red, yet so discreet.
She'd never seen a hue my blue.
Sweet deathly rose that I once knew.
Her fragrance wafted on the breeze,
And all were drawn to her with ease.
I put down roots near her and grew.
Sweet deathly rose...

My ''Deathly'' Fear
If I should die, dress me in purple satin
On my neck a string of pearls fasten
Lay upon me roses red
A weeping tear shed
Oh, this I
Dread
Cannot lie
Life is a thread
The end of it, I do dread
Promise, I will not be forgotten
If I should die, dress...

Deathly Deceptions and Treasured Truths"Eat from that tree, and you will die,"
and on God’s words, you can rely.
There is no need to question why,
It’s deadly God’s words to deny.
Fair Eve believed a fatal lie,
When she was told, “You will not die,
Wisdom, the good fruit will supply,
You will become like...

Love: the Deathly and DelicateLike the sight of Dandelions at an open venerate sepulcher.
Of the ardent touch, precipitously hailing two other's semblances to erudite tacit merit.
Voracious of the petal's vocation.
Voracious of the petal, so insatiably, so securely vulnerable, does she... does she not...
Delicate, denoted as such an inane, yet...

A Deathly MysteryDeath comes in many forms
It has many faces
Could be anywhere
Anything
It could be fast and thoughtless
Don't know what has happened
Until it's too late
Death can be slow and painful
An agonizing waiting game
Watching the Darkness cover your eyes forever
Staring out yet seeing nothing
A bright light?
A door?
What is it?
Such...

Deathly EmbraceI cannot escape the ruthless reality,
of this sinister shadow now over me.
Lying safe upon a bed of rusty nails,
blanketed in a cloak of woeful misery.
I’m suffocated, and I cannot breathe;
inhaling the brutality of his mad scent.
A raunchy stench too overwhelming,
I refuse the notion that we...

Deathly Silence
Mind astir in dark shadows,
Silence, all asleep,
Ears strain for flashes of life,
But no, not a beep.
Tears roll down my eyes,
Unspeakable sorrow drowns
words - thoughts face demise.

The Deathly GripEve propped on the chair
Sultry and vivacious
Ensnaring the snake
It hissed and raised its head
For the desired sting
One hypnotic look
Before his deadly attack..... But
Eve flew high in air
With a a swift deathly grip on its neck
She landed front stage
And took...

Deathly Mauve RosesI cannot see a mauve rose without falling tears,
mother- even after all these long years;
the sweet scent makes me weep, weep,
I close my eyes and see them all again, draped;
on your casket- on the ground...

Deathlythe man rode the horse
he left the reins
sometimes he had to live like this
like everyone
woman looked very long from after
to go was unknown
some questions stuck in our minds
like everyone
the same pain in both
love hits the heart of
some things had to happen

Deathly FateRivers of blood
pour teardrops of my soul
joyous aches sends
a heavenly bliss through
my life
a disturbing sight brings
happy moisture to my
eyes
a surplus of chaos
brightens my darken skies
the monster in me has taken over
and im in no control
but i dont tobe saved

Deathly War of SoulDEATHLY WAR OF SOUL
Deathly war of soul,
yesterday our lives were moving well
but today we are going sick.
For your words are all respected.
Yesterday we stayed like a flower together,
but today we heard the sound of blooming away.
Leaving our flowers,
Can a creator stay with a smile?
Without a...

A Sojourn With Deathly Swansthere is no fire in the lavender skies of February
it is as if all that exists with warmth, light and desire
has fled to the future
it is here that the white swans muse and ponder
slowly stirring in hapless meanderings
through a stoic sluggish pond
it is here that...

Awaiting Deathly VeilIn drained stare
Manacled and bare
Vixens two
Deadened despair
Their victim sits
Punctured and pale
As a last tear falls
Awaiting deathly veil
Living becomes ashen
Her pertness fails
Their darkness glee's
Her soul now sails
Blue black dark
Now haunts her eyes
These naked vixens
Shrieking cries
A body once lived
Her spirits now flown
Another life awaits
Beside the dark ones...
