Mike's Poems

Alone

By Mike Patrick Wanamaker

I have climbed up and been knocked down. I have moved on from town to town. I have tried here and I have tried there still I seem to go nowhere. I have looked high and I have looked low still I just can't seem to grow. I feel sad and I feel bad still this life is all i have.So left with emptiness I groan.Wallow in sorrow forever alone.


Life

By Mike Patrick Wanamaker

I feel the stress of everyday life,cutting through me like a knife. Beating me down steady and strong,torturing me all along. Laughing at me when I bleed cursing me when I succeed. Stalking me and my every move,waiting for my immenent doom. Plotting against me as I sleep,planning my destruction every week. Try to fight back and get kicked to the ground. Who or what I am fighting I still haven't found!

Lost

By Mike Patrick Wanamaker

My mom is gone, my memories stay. Life is a game we all must play. I look for answers everyday, No reply has come my way. I continue on, my search I pray, will tell me why this life is gray. I found love, I found wealth. Still no way to keep my health. I have looked to the Lord when I have been down, still no holy land have I found. I wish I knew the purpose of life, so I may comfort my child and wife. The only thing I learned for sure. Death comes for us all young and mature.

Family

By Mike Patrick Wanamaker

Dad is gone and so is mom, still I have to carry on, With no parents at my back, life is scary to attack. Still I know what I must do, and that's to see this Life through.  I have my sisters and brothers too, My wife and children to help me through. I will lean on them whenever I can and try to do The same for them.  We owe our parents a great Deal, for giving us each other to climbs life's hills. But most of all we owe god for giving us each other and blessing us all.
