Best Family Death Poems

our angel who sleeps so peacefully there
the foundation that supports all our lives
no momma' didn't die; she moved upstairs

hands that can play Amazing Grace with flair
a melody that will lift and suprise
our angel who sleeps so peacefully there

she bakes her cakes with a dollop of...

Born In Kansas and raised in Missouri
 Was called to fight for his beloved country
And  assigned to defend an outlying territory

For freedom and democracy he did everything he could

She takes unbearable
pain, in the worst way possible.
Most may say it's 
a beautiful thing, but 
what about the one
who never made it?
She will be 
remembered as the 
bravest soldier, who
fought extremely hard 
and lost her life.
Beautiful soul, joined
the army of the Lord.

Mother's are the strongest
women...

Oh mum I’m so sorry I have to send  this to you
You never wanted me to go, but I am not one of the few
Oh mum, remember when you kissed away my pain
I wish you could do that once more - yes again.

I’m...

Learning a heart beats makes life go fast
My heart beats twice as fast as you think
and half as fast as I remember


When the rainbow came out
over my grandmother's wet face
in the rain in a crowd 
of nervous spectators

I graduated again
under the gazing admiration of 
a...

At first I thought it was the gales
That howled into the night,
But then the banshee's keening wails
Broke all the glass in sight

I hopped from bed up to the sill
To see what I could see
I saw a crow upon the hill
A dark monstrosity

My throat closed up;...

The little voice begging for love and freedom from classroom is mine
I  am a child 
Who harbours unspoken words and wavered feelings in my heart
If you let my spirit out of this cage, a beautiful world I'll paint
Now I am bound by chains of...

I don't want to lose, not until I try
And I know u won't give up too, not without one hell of a fight.

My death wish

Death may come faster
Than I expected,
Family,
I know I am nothing but a burden,
I can see it in your eyes.

Please stay away from my funeral
With your vial tongues
Your insane minds
and your want for attention.

When my death comes
Please look at my body,
See what you have...

Charley

In Carolina a young man’s journey began.
Today in Mississippi was it’s end.
Dressed in the best he had, 
they returned an old man to the ground;
in the shade of a white oak,
Ginseng berries all around.

His was a tale of pain and woe.
His brother lost at Perryville,...

When all was said and done,
Who was there? 
A gleaming friend in the nights of sorrow
And in the depths of despair?

Did you know what you were doing
As you took each sip?
Did you know what you were doing 
As through your fingers your life slipped?

Was the...

You were the rock
Of the family 
You held us together
And kept us strong
You were like a lion
When you roared
Everybody listened
An stood at attention
That’s how powerful
You were
But father time
Begin to chip away
At the rock
Who begins to crack
Into small pieces
Chipping and chipping 
Away at you until
You turn...

Death derives from destruction, 
And cannot occur without proper instruction, 
It scares us all in many ways, 
Happening everyday during 365 days,
Naturally you feel no pain,
Making your friends and family go insane,
It's like a flower without its color,
You sob and cry when you lose your...
