    The worse part of living is dying it hurts not the soul dying but the people who have to bear the pain and the hope of them coming back letting go always hurts but to hear and dying pierces the soul great emotional andt tragic, poem 5/5

    Reading this brought back the memories and hurt of loss..I'm still trying to deal with it. I agree with Joker Queen the worse part of living is dying for that pain is hard to forget.

    5/5.Totally agree with Joker Queen and Meena. The bitter truth of life is death which is inevitable .Very emotional and touchy poem.

    Well done Saffie, poems are actually expressing someone's thought which is essential in making the piece come into life. This is absolutely sentimental as i read between the lines, there goes a modern juliet which is fighting for Romeo. Though sad it is, its value is what makes this piece very romantic than a happy ending.

    I've read this countless times now and each time, it takes a piece of my heart. It brings up memories that I try to bury to keep myself a little sane but sometimes I need a reminder that sometimes it's okay to still grieve.

    The imagery of this poem is astounding. I can imagine every little detail like I'm standing right there beside you. I can see the tubes inserted in his hands, hear the beeps, the murmurs of the nurses/doctor breaking the news to you that the machine is the only thing keeping him alive and you must say goodbye. Heart-wrenching honestly.

    You refuse to accept the fact that this is the person you love lying there. He's basically lifeless and his color, features, etc... just don't fit like they normally do. You cannot and will not accept that it's him...so you will continue to live the rest of your life searching for him because no matter what, you will not say goodbye.

    Ugh, my heart.

    Beautiful poem, as always.
