Best Last Breath Poems

Royal blue sky scattered sapphire clouds
On horizon embroidered in navy blue attire
Summoned by the onset of marigold sun 
Emitting amber gold on tuscan yellow fire
Where tapestry of fluffy lavender floats
Decorating patterns of designs periwinkle 

Mosaic of colors then spray-paint the water
Spreading a layer of golden yellow cover
Shimmering gold dust on twilight ripples
Abutting brushstrokes of dark...

When the last rain drop has fallen
and final word has been spoken.
When mercy is no longer our saviour,
remember, each time your heart beats,
with every sigh on the tip of your tongue,
my only wish was to forever love you,
stronger than the light that shone at sunrise,
warmer than the rays from that golden orb,
more powerful than the...

If I had to choose between loving you
And breathing my very last breath
I would use this opportunity
To say I love you
This is how deep my feelings are for you
To the ends of the earth I would go
To find you again if we ever were separated
I'm a mere mortal trying to explain
My love for you is...

This poem was written by my husband last month for Victor Carmel Buhagiar with also a rosary he had made with angels as stations , so I decide to add


Angels in Flight

In darkness at day or night I'm never alone
For I have six angels to see me...

The gentle wind warms my old wrinkled skin
As I slowly sink in the sea's soft sand
The gliding flight of seabirds seen again
Beyond gray contours where sea touches land 
Their soft silhouettes claim this final place
As I silently stare into the view
And find quiet edges my eyes embrace
Knowing all of us are just passing through
This moment...

The sense of time passing slowly,
has passed.
It moved beyond pace to comprehend,
when my skin turned a spotted grey,
and eyes once focused now open,
to a foggy haze.

I grieve not,
for the journey created expectations,
from a child born unaware.
who reached an age of reflection.
Where memories are washed,
in misty realms of truth and fiction,
and thoughts of what should have...

Twenty four dead roses
Heat waves and reposes
No one knows what never was
Autumn breezes sing in melancholy hues

Flowers dance around paupers grave
Buried now yet never saved
From life's despair or a loving hand
Sadness is the graves last grand stand

Loneliness lost in cobbled stone alleys
No one sees the empty tear
Anxiety knifes the lonely mans fear
Autumn winds chant yet...

The world was on fire, no one could save me but you
 - Chris Isaak - Wicked Game


All I ask of you, is to stand firm by me. 
Please. It's all I desire, while the world's on fire.
Remain in my life, feel the fatigue shatter. 
Dance with me on clouds that began to gather.
I want...

They say Trees breathe in,
What we Exhale.

I watched you take your last breath,
I've missed you since. 

I just wonder, if the tree feels as lucky as I do.
Knowing,
That you're a part of its life now....

As dark storms roar, on numb biting floor his fears soar,
masked monsters crawl in painful sprawl of chilling squall
in his abode, winter showed then memories flowed.
Familiar gloom creeps in the room; a hazy fume,
war mistakes, a secret shakes while his courage breaks
a struggling moth, blood red froth staining his white cloth.
An ember glow, his hopes...

Blood staining shimmers
flow out behind
crack in my heart
break out in mime


Crystalline echos
bells did toll tell
darkness has risen
slaughter reigns hell


Split as it soared
crashed into soul
memories been bleed
stories be told


Burning through temples
ripped out of tombs
shrine that was body
now lays in ruin


Silent pleas reaching
strummed out by ten
streaming in whispers
prayers to the wind


Nights rocking earth
shaking the lean
black dog is...

Before last breath, he finds a quiet space
As time's arc has reached its final expanse
Traveled trails from life are etched in his face
His sense of mortality is enhanced
On the long road, his heart had been assailed
Left to bleed memories that stabbed the mind
Where forgiveness was asked for times he failed
An enduring pain to always remind
Yet,...

last breath
thanking the plants and animals
that have sustained me
my ancestors I honor
and the spirit enfolding me...
