For us, he is alive and somewhere nearby,
In memories, in heart and in dreams
The soul is always alive, she knows everything
And see how we suffer now!
There was more than one angel in heaven,
And it's obvious, I know for sure!
Today, tomorrow and all my life
We remember, love and mourn!

I asked God to return everything,
He didn't seem to want to hear me.
Went through a short life
We can't see you anymore...

When they met in secret
When they played chess
Everything was cool back then
You were with us Arkashka!

Now you're gone
Filled with sadness
I remember all the time
And I really miss...

Perhaps you came
Well, for God's sake, I ask you:
"You come to me more often,
I always look forward to you!"

I feel bad without him... Unbearable
I just exist, don't live
Oh Lord, give me some strength!
I don't ask for more

Separation cuts more and more, strangles
There is no air. Only bitter gray smoke
All sounds strain the ear and the soul,
And the world became somehow gray empty

Closing my eyes, I imagine that he is near,
Will pierce the heart with a trembling in the chest,
His face with a blank and sad look
And quietly I whisper: "Don't go..."

The soul shrinks into a ball,
He was given a short sentence.
And he couldn't do much.
Although I wanted to continue to live, I could,
But alas...
Time is over and life is too short.
And it's not easy to leave, but you can't return anything,
A sharp knife to the heart...
And it's better not to touch anything,
Wanted to help? well...
You can't help anything
And the strip of the knife will not grow together
You die slowly
You scream like you're not breathing
But all in vain .. He left for another world forever ...

You left, the whole world faded ...
my heart is already beating a little...
I don't believe that you are gone.
Why did it all happen?
You left, taking everything with you ...
There were tears in my eyes...
And in the heart there is only a silent pain ...
We will always remember YOU...

Hearts are burning and candles are crying
For our dear ones.
And in the early morning, afternoon and evening
We remember them, yearn and mourn
We ask their souls eternal rest
Save love and memory
And we pray on our knees
And again we yearn and mourn.

All poems for you, my angel,
Pain pierces through every word
And the soul does not find its peace
Until we are together again.

You will live forever in memory
And no matter what anyone says
There, behind the cemetery fence,
The world remembers you.
People like you will never be forgotten
Eyes will shine with tears.
And for a very long time people will still be
Carry you bouquets of scarlet roses.
Are you sleeping. But everything is so unusual.
Everything reminds me of you.
And only the rain is so quiet, barely audible
Knocking. As if saying hello.

It's so hard for me to live without you
And you - you tease and disturb.
You can't replace me
The whole world .... But it seems that you can.
I have mine in the world:
Deeds, successes and misfortunes.
I just miss you
For complete human happiness.
It's so hard for me to live without you
Everything is uncomfortable, everything is disturbing ...
You cannot replace the world,
But after all and he you not can!

Our loved ones don't die
They return with warm rain.
They even come back from paradise
To see how we love and wait.
Running through the gardens and across the field,
Having drunk, and flowers and forests,
Taking a deep breath of native air,
Rise up - into the sky.
Rise up - evaporation,
Turning into a cloud again.
And again they spill - a downpour,
To see our love
Our loved ones don't die.

A man lived and suddenly he was gone.
His heart stopped beating.
Mom is crying, my love is crying
What have you done, you ruined it.
But it could have been different
And do not help grief by crying.
You don't know how to live on
Only in life you forget to love.

The voice of the native is not heard,
You can't see the kind, sweet eyes.
Why was fate cruel?
How early you left us!
Great sorrow cannot be measured
Tears of grief do not help
You are not with us, but forever
You will not die in our hearts.
Nobody could save you
Passed away too soon.
But the bright image is your own
We will always remember...

When the closest one leaves,
Native, beloved person.
The whole world will appear as a bitter drama
Where everything turns black, even the snow.
And never! Nothing in the world
The warmth of their hands cannot be replaced.
As long as you're alive, don't be stingy
Give love to family...

You've gone to holy eternity
And our pain cannot be helped,
And the name of pain is infinity...
You left us for another world - there,
From where there is no return
Leaving a memory of yourself, love,
Sadness and pain of loss.
You reign in heaven
And we carry roses to the grave.
May the earth rest in peace for you
And the soul - eternal rest.

Words cannot express the pain of loss
Nobody knows when trouble will come.
Fate alone is to blame
That You left us forever, forever.
Let it be easy for you there
And the memory of You will remain here with us.
Sleep in peace, swan down to you land,
And the soul is the Kingdom of Heaven.

You have gone to holy eternity, and our pain cannot be helped,
and the name of pain is infinity...
You left us for another world - to where there is no return,
leaving a memory of yourself, love, sadness and pain of loss.
You reign in heaven, and we carry roses to the grave.
May the earth rest in peace for you, and eternal rest for your soul.

When we are young and full of hope for the future, it is difficult to accept the fact that death is also a part of life. Entering adulthood, we inevitably face it: unfortunately, our grandparents are not eternal, and younger relatives and friends are not all distinguished by good health, one of them may have an accident or die. It is impossible to come to terms with the idea that one day someone's death will definitely enter our lives, but sooner or later it will happen. We may not think about death at all, but if a misfortune happens to someone close or friends, you need to know how to behave in these difficult days of life and how to express condolences on death so as not to offend the feelings of those who are experiencing the greatest loss.

We often lose loved ones. How to express condolences on death in order to live on? helps to write a eulogy. Words cannot fully convey feelings, because everyone experiences pain in their own way. But it is in conversation that there is peace. It is important to remember how to express condolences on death so that the soul becomes easier.

Mistakes when expressing condolences

Often at a funeral, people forget who is in the center of an event, albeit a sad one. This is a dead person. Words of condolences on this day are pronounced in his honor. But some are sure that others are interested in their experiences. “I almost died when I was also left without a mother” - your experience is sad, but how will it help the mourner?

The search for the perpetrators (“The doctor overlooked”) or benefits (“But you will receive an inheritance”) is beyond. Questions like: “How did this happen?” will show not your condolences about the death, but curiosity. Phrases reminiscent of the future (“Give birth again”, “Everything will be fine”) are not very suitable for consolation. They do not distract, because there is no strength to think about the prospects.

Poetic epitaphs found on the Internet are not at all an interesting solution. Reading out rhyming phrases, behind which the fate of a real person is not visible, breathes indifference. Ready-made epitaphs will show that there were no personal words in memory of the deceased. Sometimes it is better to silently approach and hug the bereaved than to try to be original.

How to express condolences on death

Condolences on the occasion of death are offered in person or by telephone. Getting off with a short SMS: “Condolences” or “Please accept my condolences” will not work. Messages are used for a quick exchange of information if there is no way to call, and not for condolences.

Universal condolences on death (short words)

At the beginning, it is customary to say: “My condolences”, “Accept my condolences” or “Accept our condolences” if you are speaking on behalf of other people. Standard phrases: “The news of death ... is a blow”, “It is impossible to comprehend this news and describe our grief in words”, “I still can’t believe it.” In conclusion, they add: “We grieve with you”, “We empathize with your grief”, or “We sympathize and regret the grief that has befallen you”.

Use condolences on the occasion of death in your own words if you knew the deceased and relatives closely, so you can predict their reaction. Briefly describe the striking features of a person and his influence. A careless word can cause an outburst of anger. Religious formulations (“For God all are alive”, “God rest in peace”) will cause controversy if agnostics and atheists hear condolences.

Ritual agencies will help to guide the deceased on the last journey, the work of which clients leave grateful reviews and recommend to their friends. 24-hour free phone number of MosGupRitual company:
