About the Poem
The deeper the love, the greater the loss... How would it feel to find your soulmate - only to lose her? I pray that I never find out...
Death Claimed My Love |
| by Sea_of_okc |
| My story is a tragedy Be prepared to cry They say time heals all But that is a lie I searched my whole life And I finally found The one meant for me Love and joy did abound How quickly that changed One ill-fated day Death claimed my love Death stole her away Maddened by grief Consumed by my sorrow She was my future Now I have no tomorrow I stare at her picture I long for her touch I can still smell her I miss her so much I pick up my gun And contemplate death What use in living When I feel so bereft But life is a gift And I haven't the right So I put down my gun And weep through each night I mourn for her daily There is no relief My soul is tormented My heart filled by grief My life without meaning No feelings but pain Death claimed my lady I can't love again My bedmate is rage My friend, misery I live for my death Cause she's waiting for me |

That Story really touched me. I just lost some one i love but not a boy friend it was my grandmar and i loved her very much that story made me think of her

Charlee
Your poem touched me and you were right i did cry. i know what its like to just want to lay down close your eyes and die. a feeling of nothingness nothing matters or never will. sorry for you loss. but im sure she wouldnt want you to be unhappy so live your days as if each one was your last and when the time comes for you to be together again it will happen. good luck with your girl for when you do passover to heaven or whatever else you may belive in. God bless

This poem is very beautiful, I have not yet experienced the loss of a loved one like you have but I sure have experienced the gift of life that only God can offer. He heals all wounds and all your pain and sorrow he takes away if you would only give your life to him. Jesus loves you! All things happen for a reason. Give yourself to him and you will suffer no more.

This is a beautiful, yet tragic poem. I lost so many loved ones in my life. I lost my small son, and his father. I lost my sister and grandmother just recently. I feel such sympathy for the author, and pray that he finds happiness in his life to keep going on. God bless

My boyfriend, the most beautiful, gentle, and sincere man I've ever known. died on September 29th, 2002. He had just finished playing (bass guitar) at a benefit concert. He set his guitar down, and collapsed. I ran to him and he died in my arms. I can relate to every word of this poem.
