Best Stillborn Poems

YOUR EYES SEE THROUGH
THE WALL BETWEEN US
BUT YOU CAN'T REACH IN
AND GRAB ME
SOLACE IN MY SOLITUDE
MAKES MY HEAVY BURDENS GAIN
THE FALL OF OUR MADNESS
WAS WHEN THE WORDS WERE FROZEN
THE SPRING WAITS
FOR THE SHADOW.

Stillborn  1899


My simple soul, my eyes,
Have never beheld the jewel of the night,
The morning star that ushers in
The dawning of a new day.
My brief inner heartbeat has never felt
The gentle pelting of the rain,
As it descends downward
Gently, peacefully, magically,
Like the mist of a...

As I closed my door and lay down to sleep,
A poem came and violently knocked at my door.
Being quite late, I put a rein on my desire to admit it in
Even in my sleep I could hear the faint sound of a knock.

In the wee...

Her mother looked with tears, heart leaking with pains
As the silent body of her newborn laid there
Skin peeling off with every touch
Skull losely packed with pieces of bones
Feeling like a jelly in one's hands

A heartbreaking goodbye it was to the daughter who never lived
Macerated stillborn...

Welcome to this darkened earth,
brightened, briefly, by your birth.
But soon enough covered again
by darkness born from souls of men.
We have left ourselves forsaken,
ghoulish rituals partaken.
New life eclipsed by endless death,
nightmares live in every breath.
Your vibrant eyes won't light for long,
degenerate from weak to strong.
Enter life...

Targatus had come and gone.
Heimann had had his fun.
Enchaptus wouldn't have gone so soon.

Still born are the reason of the emerging moon.
The still borns,
Inverses sorrowful dirge to fun.
Learning had had it that still borns are the born deads.
Learning had made her mistakes,for most alives are...

Some Stillborn Child

Always seemed to be so sad
About  someone I never had
Before and not here anymore;
Now can't open or shut a door.

Where could my child have gone;
Why did God bring this upon?
Me and would have to suffer so;
Not see a face that likes to...

Once upon a time
There was a still born child
She didn’t scream
Just cried
She was alive
But dead inside
She was born to a woman
That had fallen from heaven
Who had married a man
That was living in sin
Little girl was born in a house
That never was her home
The house was...

Sweet little angel,
High up above.
Never saw your smile,
Never felt your love.
I feel so deprived
Because your stay was so brief,
Left my world upside down,
Torn apart by grief.
I still wonder why
You were taken away,
Why you had to die
In such a mysterious way.
Perhaps I didn't deserve 
To receive...

Raw 
Intelligence…
Like dry 
Cement
Sitting unmixed
Never used
To make 
Anything 
Real

Raw 
Intelligence…
A flashing
Neon light
To its own 
Potential
Bulbs
Burning out
One at a time

Raw
Intelligence…
Its shadows
Forever littered
Along a
Lost and 
Forgotten
Past tense
Alleyway

Raw
Intelligence…
Like shards of
Glass
In the maelstrom
Reflecting a story
Of what 
Might
Have been

there's a little dog that's laughing
at a cow jumping the moon
and a cat playing a fiddle
on the wall of a bright room
where a mobile's hanging silent
waiting patiently to turn
like the pages on the bookshelf
that proclaim it's fun to learn
and there's a bible on a small...

I never seen your smile
 I never heard your cry,
You where here only for a moment,
 and only God knows why.

A piece of me you took with you
  on that tragic day,
In pieces I am left
  because you could not stay.

A thousand are...

Once upon a time
A baby girl was born
But not a tear she cried,
Not a whisper could be heard.
The baby sleeps in peace,
So gentle and undisturbed.
What beautiful harmony -
That precious little girl.

Once upon a time
A baby girl was born
And through the air she flies
With little wings...

Murmur. 
Bloodflow. Heartbeat. 
Gurgle. Whoosh. Burp. 
Ma. Mom. Momma. Dada. 
Hiccup. Thump. Hum. 
Mommy. Daddy. 
Pitch. Rhythm. Pattern. 
Music. 
Movement. 
Mother. Father. 
Scream. 
Stillness. 
Silence.
