Last Poems - Poems about Last

Last night I dreamt In a parallel world, a day I spent Unlike the reality, it was humble and decent Wandering alone with heart full of dreams, Never felt as a pity Wanting me to live being gritty I did what I wanted with no restriction I was...

Road work had been finished for the winter on an asphalt strip north of town near a nature preserve. I said good-bye to the hotel owner and he invited me back although the town was a lifetime away from my home. We shook hands. The town wore its history well with a façade of an old west town complete with a jail and post...

THE LAST IN LINE Ronnie James Dio poetry contest, Robert James Liguori, sponsor, June 18, 2025. This poem was inspired by my favorite Ronnie James Dio song, “The Last in Line.” In the fading light of day, will I find the shadows of my soul dancing in the twilight, or will the light reveal my truths, as I sift through the...

I close my eyes, Be still my heart, I’m not ready to be apart, Beating deep, A saddened heart, Nobody said it would be this hard, Pain runs deep, Flowing in these veins of mine, Forever wouldn’t have been enough time, Tears flow, One at a time, This much hurt should be a crime, Now I stand alone, The sun brings a new dawn, A new day...

No matter the subject or topic tho' it may burn will I ever learn would it hurt if my lips were to close as whatever I submit suggest propose she will be myopic nay-say gainsay contradict oppose may as well hold my breath as every word I utter receives the kiss of death and melts in my mouth like butter should I assert it's what...

He looked at me, eyes dull and cold, “What the hell are you doing here?” And just like that-my heart caved in, Shattered by the words I feared. I had come with love in trembling hands, A daughter needing something small- Just a soft goodbye, a crack of light, But he built another wall. I stood there stunned, not sure to speak, Not...

The last poem I'll ever write before I burn this whole system down And if this gets me killed so be it I'll burn down the world If that makes you listen And if you think just because of my skin I'll back down and let you win You would be sadly mistaken I will burn down the system And...

The last one standing Would usually be a victory But in this black girls story It was the opposite For her this was a loss Being the only black girl in the school And for this She felt it deeply Knowing for the next few years She would be lonely Most of the other black parents Wanted their children To escape from...

First it came like progress, cold and clean, With circuits bright and wires unseen. It took our hands from honest toil, Turned bread and sweat to data spoil. Then vanished choice beneath the screen, Where algorithms picked what dreams had been. We traded sleep for sleepless feeds, And fed the dark on silent needs. Now history flickers on the glass— A question shaped like...

Leaf got cried, On moving apart. The pain wandered Inside a Lil heart. The living trend, Lasting for long Blowed the wind Asking the will along! To separate heartily Relations on a bid! Aparting soul merrily! Getting a silent rid! The determine lasts One the only will, Before moments pass, Earlier to be shrinked! Asking for a heart Emotions let filled! One with fond arts Living love still!...

The love you shared that did not last Sadness felt when remembering the past Stomach aches when you look at the skies The stars glow bright, like her big brown eyes Try to move forward, find a new love She came to you from Heaven above Time moves on, sometimes stands still The Happiness felt, is this Gods will. The stars are...

We were given one garden, One womb spun in stardust and sea foam, But we — children of steel and smoke — Turned it into a battlefield of greed. The trees whispered secrets of balance, But we silenced them with chainsaws. The rivers wept in silver tones, Now they gag on plastic and oil. Oceans rise not in wrath — But in sorrow. Mountains crumble...

Now a knight without a horse, And his sword without a cause. With the falling of his kind, Shall there be truth, he can find? With head slumped from all the pain, Memories lost, no picture frame. As he stood upon the mound, With no fragments to be found. Watching his world as it falls, He...
