Dear, Deathbed Poem by Dashaun Rashod Snipes Mister

Dear, Deathbed

Dear, Deathbed, I approach you with fear
For you hold the end, the final frontier
My mind races with thoughts of what's to come
As I face you, my heart begins to hum
Dear, Deathbed, you are both dreaded and feared
For you bring the end, the end that is near
You are both a curse and a blessing
For in your embrace, there is no guessing
Dear, Deathbed, your presence is cold
As I lie here, weak and old
Your sheets are white, your pillows soft
But in your grasp, lies the final cost
Dear, Deathbed, I see my life flash by
Like a movie, with scenes that make me cry
Memories flood my mind, both happy and sad
As I lay here, with you as my only comrade
Dear, Deathbed, I feel your grip on my hand
A reminder that soon, I'll leave this land
Your touch is gentle, yet strong and sure
Leading me to a place, forever pure
Dear, Deathbed, I see my loved ones cry
As they hold my hand, and say their goodbyes
Their tears, like raindrops, fall on my face
But in your arms, there is no disgrace
Dear, Deathbed, I hear the whispers in the room
As my loved ones pray for me, hoping for a miracle bloom
But I know, deep inside, my time has come
And with you, I'll soon be gone
Dear, Deathbed, I feel my heartbeat slow
As my breaths become shallow, and my body let's go
I close my eyes, and I sense you near
Whispering words, only I can hear
Dear, Deathbed, I have no fear
For in your embrace, I feel so clear
I am ready to go, to take my final breath
For I know, with you, there is no death
Dear, Deathbed, as I take my last breath
I am at peace, for there is no regret
I close my eyes, and I say farewell
For with you, I'll finally dwell
Dear, Deathbed, you are my final resting place
A place of comfort, a place of grace
For in your arms, I am free
From all the pain and suffering, that once consumed me
Dear, Deathbed, as I bid you adieu
I thank you, for the journey you took me through
You showed me the beauty of life
And in my last moments, you took away all strife
Dear, Deathbed, I welcome you with open arms
For you are the end, but also the start
The start of a journey, to a better place
Where I'll find eternal peace, in your final embrace


Dear, Deathbed,
I approach you with dread
A place where life's thread
Comes to an end, a final shred
Dear, Deathbed,
You hold both fear and dread
But also memories unsaid
Of those who've laid on your bed
Dear, Deathbed,
Your sheets are pure white, pristine
But with each soul you've seen
They leave their mark, unclean
Dear, Deathbed,
You stand as a solemn witness
To life's ultimate finish
As each breath becomes diminish
Dear, Deathbed,
How many tears have you seen?
As loved ones bid farewell, serene
Leaving behind a heart-wrenching scene
Dear, Deathbed,
Your presence is heavy, profound
As loved ones gather around
For a final goodbye, profound
Dear, Deathbed,
The flowers on your side table
Speak of love and loss, unable
To comprehend this final fable
Dear, Deathbed,
The clock on the wall ticks away
As life's moments begin to fray
And memories start to sway
Dear, Deathbed,
Whispers of prayers and goodbyes
Echo in your empty skies
As souls begin their final rise
Dear, Deathbed,
You bear witness to pain and grief
But also to love, unrelieved
For in the end, it's the only relief
Dear, Deathbed,
Your pillows hold the weight
Of those who've met fate
And left this world, with no debate
Dear, Deathbed,
How many stories could you tell?
Of love, loss, and farewell
A silent witness to life's spell
Dear, Deathbed,
Your presence is a reminder
That life is fleeting, a mere timer
And in the end, we're all just travelers
Dear, Deathbed,
As I stand before you now
I can't help but wonder how
My own journey will come to a bow
Dear, Deathbed,
You are feared and avoided
But in truth, you are just another road
That we must all take, bestowed
Dear, Deathbed,
You are not the end, but a transition
To a realm beyond our vision
Where love and peace are the mission
Dear, Deathbed,
With heavy hearts and bittersweet tears
We face you, with all our fears
But also with hopes, for a better sphere
Dear, Deathbed,
Though your name may bring dread
You are a reminder instead
To live each day, before we're laid on your bed.



Dear, Deathbed
Whispered in the night
Silent witness of final breaths
Memories swirl in hazy light
As life slowly ebbs
Dear, Deathbed
Comfort in your embrace
A gentle passage to the other side
Soft release from earthly race
In your arms, we confide
Dear, Deathbed
A bittersweet goodbye
A journey to the unknown
Leaving behind a long sigh
As loved ones mourn and moan
Dear, Deathbed
A canvas of life's tale
Etched with joys and sorrows
A place where memories prevail
And secrets no longer follow
Dear, Deathbed
The final destination
Where all must eventually meet
An end to all, no discrimination
With your touch, we retreat
Dear, Deathbed
A place of contemplation
Where regrets and dreams collide
In the face of death's invitation
We confront our fears and pride
Dear, Deathbed
A haven of reflection
Where the past and present merge
A moment of introspection
As we prepare to take the final surge
Dear, Deathbed
A transition so serene
With you, we find solace
Our fear of death, you help us glean
As we embrace our final callous
Dear, Deathbed
A final resting place
Where we lay to rest
Our mortal coils and earthly grace
In peaceful slumber, we're blessed
Dear, Deathbed
A symbol of closure
A chapter reaching its end
An end to life's exposure
A journey we must all transcend
Dear, Deathbed
You hold our loved ones' hands
As they take their final breaths
Leaving behind memories and lands
As they surrender to your depths
Dear, Deathbed
You are not a place of sorrow
But of acceptance and peace
In you, we find a new tomorrow
Where all our pain and struggles cease
Dear, Deathbed
Though you may seem grim
You are a reminder of life's fragility
And with each death, a new life begins
In an endless cycle of duality
Dear, Deathbed
You teach us to cherish
The moments we have together
For in the end, all will perish
And we'll leave this world forever
Dear, Deathbed
Your finality, we must embrace
For without you, life has no meaning
In your embrace, we find grace
And a sense of life's true meaning
Dear, Deathbed
You are not the end
But a new beginning
A transition we must all comprehend
As we bid this world goodbye, our heads spinning
Dear, Deathbed
Thank you for your gentle touch
For guiding us to the other side
In you, we find a sense of much
In you, we find our final ride.




Dear, Deathbed,
With you I lay my head,
In your cold embrace I rest,
My final journey, my last quest.
Dear, Deathbed,
You hold no fear, no dread,
Just peace and calmness reside,
As I prepare to say goodbye.
Dear, Deathbed,
I see the world through a different lens,
Memories flash before my eyes,
A life filled with love and goodbyes.
Dear, Deathbed,
I feel your gentle touch,
Whispers of the unknown,
As I count my final breaths, alone.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are my final resting place,
Where I leave behind all sorrow,
And embrace a tomorrow.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are an angel in disguise,
Guiding me towards the light,
As I let go of this mortal fight.
Dear, Deathbed,
You offer a stillness so serene,
A chance to reflect, to redeem,
My life, my choices, my dreams.
Dear, Deathbed,
You remind me of the fragility of life,
That every moment is a precious gift,
To be cherished, to be lived.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are a bittersweet farewell,
A reminder of the inevitable end,
But also a chance to make amends.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are the final chapter of my story,
But within your white sheets,
Lies a legacy that will forever speak.
Dear, Deathbed,
You have seen so many depart,
Yet you remain a symbol of love,
A symbol of strength, a symbol of art.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are a place of both joy and pain,
Where loved ones gather to say goodbye,
But also where their love will forever reside.
Dear, Deathbed,
You hold no judgement, no bias,
For death comes to us all,
And in your arms, we stand tall.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are a reminder of our mortality,
But also of the beauty in our fragility,
And the power of love and humility.
Dear, Deathbed,
As I take my final breath,
I thank you for the comfort you provide,
For in you, I find peace, by your side.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are a symbol of a life well lived,
Of love, of laughter, of all that I give,
And with you, I am ready to bid farewell.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are not the end, but a new beginning,
A journey to a place beyond our knowing,
And in your arms, I find solace and meaning.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are a place of both sorrow and grace,
But also a reminder to embrace,
The beauty of life, in every single space.
Dear, Deathbed,
As I close my eyes and rest,
I leave behind my earthly struggles,
And embark on my eternal quest.
Dear, Deathbed,
With you, I lay my head,
In your cold embrace, I surrender,
But in my heart, I'll always remember.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are a poem waiting to be told,
A story of love, of life, and of old,
And with you, my journey unfolds.
Dear, Deathbed,
You are not the end, but a new beginning,
And with every breath, my soul is singing,
For in your arms, I find eternal peace.



Dear Deathbed,
You lie in wait
A place of rest, a final fate
Your presence fills the room around
As I lay here, on shaky ground
Dear Deathbed,
I hear your call
Soft and steady, like a gentle fall
Each breath I take, a little less
My heart slowing, a quiet caress
Dear Deathbed,
I see your face
A peaceful stillness, a somber grace
You hold my hand, a comforting touch
As I slip away, oh how much
Dear Deathbed,
Memories flood
Of all the moments, of all the blood
Of laughter and tears, of love and pain
A life well-lived, but now, in vain
Dear Deathbed,
I feel my soul
Drifting away, beyond my control
Leaving my body, like a feather
Floating towards, the great unknown together
Dear Deathbed,
You are my end
But also my beginning, my dear friend
For in your embrace, I find my peace
A final release, from all life's cease
Dear Deathbed,
You hold no fear
For I know, my loved ones are near
Waiting for me, on the other side
A reunion, my heart can't hide
Dear Deathbed,
You are my home
Where I lay to rest, no longer roam
A place of quiet, and eternal sleep
Where sorrows fade, and souls can weep
Dear Deathbed,
You are my final bed
Where my body will rest, when I am dead
But my spirit will soar, forevermore
In your loving arms, I'll find my cure
Dear Deathbed,
You are not dark
For you hold a light, an eternal spark
A gateway to a world unknown
Where mysteries unfold, and truth is shown
Dear Deathbed,
I welcome you
For in your presence, I bid adieu
To all the pains, to all the sorrow
My journey ends, but not tomorrow
Dear Deathbed,
You are a reminder
That life is short, like a fleeting ember
To live with love, and without regret
For one day, our paths will intersect
Dear Deathbed,
You are my guide
The final stop on this wild ride
But I am not alone, for you are here
Holding my hand, calming my fear
Dear Deathbed,
You are my sanctuary
A place of rest, a place of clarity
I embrace you, with open arms
For in you, my soul finds calm
Dear Deathbed,
You are a friend
A faithful companion, until the end
But even then, I know you'll stay
In my heart, in every single way
Dear Deathbed,
You are not the end
But a new beginning, a message to send
To live each day, with gratitude
For one day, we'll all meet you
Dear Deathbed,
You are a part of me
A bittersweet reminder, that I am free
In your embrace, I'll find my peace
My final journey, to eternal release.
