David Michael Barnett Poems

It is sad to hear
that you are still in the arms of depression.
She is a deceitful lover.
She invites you into her arms so subtly.
...

Take Suicide Off the Table

When life is dark and dreary,
and pain is deep within your soul;
...

Orphan boy, orphan boy
what are you going to do?
Your daddy died,
your momma left
...

Stop and think before you act,
so your body doesn’t do something,
your mind will regret.
Understand if you want to be understood,
...

Love came down from heaven,
and touched a young woman's heart -
and soul, and mind, and womb,
then changed her life.
...
