life is slipping by me
i know it is behind me
giving me the kiss of death
my pulse growing less
i wish she knew i loved her
i wish it was how it were
poison running through my veins
oh it hurts so much pain
i stare up at the sky
tears running down i start to cry
i start to feel i can fly
everything passing me by
i enter the light up so high
now i know how it feels to die

What up reaper. Another good portrayal skimming across the emotional horrors we all face at some point in our lives. This is another one of yours that not only is good as is but is and excellent outline for a short story.

It's amazing what we can write with raw emotion :S I have something similar to this, but it's not about dying, it's about rejection on a spiritual level. I haven't posted it on Booksie, maybe I should to show a darker side to me.
The grim reaper taking away his soul makes me think of J.K. Rowling's Dementors as they give the kiss of death that sucks out their victims souls. I loved it very well done, one of your best pieces that I've read yet.

Sometimes when you get dumped by someone you love you feel like you really are dieing. That there is no way you can move on and that being alive is worthless. I really hope you didnt feel like that becasue whoever did dump you didnt see you for who you are. I liked this one. It really brought out the emotion you were feeling. And I'm glad your alright. =) Again I like it. =] Its surprinsing that its your first cuz it seems like youve been doing this for a long time.

What depth you have for someone so young. This poem is powerful, because it is a common theme which we can all relate too. I felt your pain, but I hope that you know that it is always there loss. I look forward to satying in touch with your thoughts.
Cheers, Kerry

As I watch him die,
tears like the river I am,
I wonder if,
the woman he loves,
can feel his last heartbeat.
I think and watch,
does she turn her head,
does stop with her life
and cry?
And as I look, seeing
him fly away,
I feel like she is not
worthy
of the love he is dieing for.
For I, too,
am dieing of love.
Keepers' River

that's real sad
sorry to hear about it though =[

That's a very nice poem, though i enjoyed HOWL a bit more. I'm happy that you're better now, cause dying for others is a waste of good blood.
