Dead EndsI pray to the god of everlasting remorse.
I rip out my heart to throw on the altar of dead ends.
May I be delivered from the sinful haters,
To re-establish ties with my benevolent friends....

The Essence of LoveAuthor Dana Redricks
July 7, 2025
Many use the word love, but do they really know what it means? Love is eternal and never does it ever go away. True love is here to stay. True love is the essence of God Yahweh.
Love is grateful, and delightful. Love is listening, and trying to be understanding....

Two kid-adultsThe star-planet is straight above
Two kid-adults on a trampoline.
Side-by-side they watch the sky
At one a.m. on the months eve
Quietly, they're waiting, staring
As time tosses and turns between
The adult-kids who prep like vets
For the other kid-adult to leave
They lay solemn side-by-side
Distanced by a lack of sleep
They make their vows on satellites
Shooting stars, and falling wings
Today-tomorrow,...

You're My Friend
You're my friend and so much more
You do for me what no one has ever done before
What kind of a friend is this
A friend that I have never known
Never known
Your care is like the first blossom gently falling
It covers me so much I can't see my own past
Your look is so warm like a soft...

The other UsJust the other day we were two,
both of whom
sat on a roof watching the night.
Watching for meaning of what and when.
We had already found the who..
or so we thought.
Though no other two shared together
more.
At least that's how we thought
then.
I didn't know what was to become of us.
This word,...

The KittenThe Kitten
In canine halls of wisdom, where dogs do reside,
A furry little menace, has decided to abide,
A kitten, small and sassy, with eyes so bright,
A ball of fluff and trouble, that's always in sight.
She pounces on my tail, with a playful little mew,
I'm like "Hey, what's the deal?" but she just looks at me "mew",
She's...

My Treasure BoxI fill my little treasure box
With things that people say
Each one a precious tender note
To bring joy to my day
And when life turns from friend to foe
When days are long and drear
I pull each little keepsake out
To fill my heart with cheer
The words you say, the words you write
Leave echoes in my heart
The sweet...

A New FriendshipHere we go again but with someone new
Nothing against you it's just I've had a few
I wonder what's going to be different about you
Those may be your thoughts about me too
I have to give you the benefit of the doubt
Allow time to past to see what your about
I'm tired of starting over but I want...

Come real close and ill be prayin that you stay

The Batter Gets in the Game
I stepped up to the plate,
with my old, familiar stance,
thinking my set routine,
would parry the pitcher’s prance.
The first was a curved ball,
curiously spun with such intrigue.
I watched it drift in, then away,
off the plate. A ball!
The next was a fast-ball, right on line.
I swung too early, too locked up in dreams,
Convinced I...

MissingI'm lost
Without your hand
To hold
The walk
To school of life
Less bold
You vanished
In a Puff.
So quickly
My heart
So sad
My tummy sickly
No stop
No hug
The speeding car
Whisked you
Away
No au revoir
The color
In my life
Now blue
My hand
So cold.
I'm missing you

I'm just trying to SurviveI'm really, REALLY tired.
I'm grasping at straws.
I've lost myself.
I'm alone so often,
I've got nowhere I can go.
I try to talk to people but I know I'm just bumming them out.
I didn't want to be like this.
I wanted to be able to laugh with my friends.
I wanted to feel courageous.
I...
