Short Die Away Poems

The train whistle puffs
Frail familiarity
A world passes by
Muffled train sounds die away
White clouds of smoke drift behind...

power of my anger
die away, vanish from 
the red of my blood.
leave from the caverns
of my heart.
let me fall free
and have bliss
 not anger
not even displeasure
let me keep 
my happiness from
the emotions
that let me fall....

she filled a cup
with ambrosia
and handed it to her enemies
so they'd live forever.
she died the next day
with a smile on her face
watching their laughter die away
and their smiles slowly decay
as their guilt grows in a bouquet
of wilted roses
their sanity decomposes...

Smile 
A shameless thing
Smile
A way to hide pain
Smile
Don't show emotion
Smile
Hide
Smile 
A broken tool
Smile 
Sometimes is the hardest thing to do
Smile
What does this word mean anyways
Smile
I guess it means to die away slowly inside and rotting your soul which must be the worst pain of all...

Footsteps die away

                                            Like dews falling on the seas

                                                Flowers bloom the bees

                                             Swaddled in a  dark blanket 
 
                                             Waiting for the morning sun...

The bugle sounds its final call
  the echoes die away
darkness now has fallen
  although it is mid-day.

The flag is being folded
  to be given to your wife;
your children stand bewildered
  at this strange twist in life.

Another hero has fallen
  and now he lies at rest.
The world's a darker place now
  for he was one of the best....

Yellow Daffodils, I weep for
You die away so fast so cruelly
Dead only green withered stalks on display
The sun rises early with dew on grass so wet too wet.

White Man, black man, tanned man, yellow man, I weep for
They die so fast so cruelly leaving behind loved ones,
Waiting for the inevitable…..
The moon is blurred and so is the human heart....

Serenade me with melodies dancing through the air.
Van Gough starry filled nights and lyrics with flair.
Soft songs of love that never die away.
Two lovers journey through a destination that marks path to pray.
No lonely nights
But a water colored haze of Monet’s sunshine rays.
No more good byes or tear filled eyes.
Splashes of melodies filling up the room.
A calming voice where no one feels gloom....

Dreams turn to nightmares
Wishes turn to curses
Love were could it be in this time of crisis
In this new world
Where children can't find there way out of the darkness
And mothers and fathers only drag them further down
Where the stars they made wishes on die away
And the sweet dreams are intruded by monsters and demons
Where love is nonexistent
And hate fills there pure souls
Burning them turning them to ashes...

a tear fights his way through desolation
the purple summer flower is snapped
hope expired to memorial
green fields are hermetically sealed
mud splashes fouling soft cheeks
the worst in humanity has been reached
childhood dreams buried by cruelty
salt burns painful in bleeding wounds
monsters shuffling around
nailing hard steel in bare walls
behind the scenes reigns vipers
ruthless sounds die away in the cosmos

Listen to poem:

Where does this wind blow in from,
where has it been, what has it done?
Vanes it twisted, clothes it flapped.
Fog and smoke palls blown away.
Sails it tautened, eagles soaring supported.

Blow-ins are welcome with hair bedraggled
clothes disheveled, flapped to tatters
For the wind makes being untidy acceptable,
especially when facing upwind right in the face of it.
The wind will drop soon, and die away, begone
leaving the parade to stand easy....

Listening intently,
My ears draw towards the softest of music
Glistening instantly,
My fears die away… and I find it so therapeutic

I gratefully write this poem
Since I haven’t wrote one in so long…I can’t stand the wait
I spiritedly dance in flawless rhythm 
Since I haven’t used my energy in so long…I don’t feel all that great

Flittering ecstatically,
My wings began to elevate in a most treasurable way 
Spluttering playfully,
My tears dry away… and my laughter makes the tune dwindle away...
