Daniel Sweetnam Poems

I died today, or so it seemed
My hearts so full of pain
Too much sadness, too much hate
Too much unlawful gain
...

Take time my friend I ask
To listen to what I say.
Look around and see
What's been given to you today.
...

I tried so hard to love you
But you never really cared
I tried so hard to trust you
But you were never really there
...

This lonely wooden pew
Is where I sit and make my stand
I dream that I'm a warrior
Fighting at God's command
...

Walking through this unending valley
Alone, afraid and scared
Tired, I boldly take a step
Wondering if I should even dare.
...
