The Union

"The Union" 

You lift me up when I have no strength
When I feel things are too rough
Today tomorrow and forever you go the extra length
Because of you I've been given a chance to be tough
In your arms you show me true love 
As a symbol of security you've become my dove
You've taught me in all things we will cling to hope 
The reason I don't need to get scared when I feel I'm at the end of my rope
In the moments I feel things aren't fair or just
You've taught me to believe in the two of us I must
It's protection and security when we are joined together
That things go from heavy as a rock to light as a feather
You're there through the worst the unsure and the best
And united together we are a force that stands every test
Through every minute hour and second that time seems to stand still and freeze
You make the whispers of the wind give a refreshing calm breeze
I find myself assured that with you as we hold hands we are one like a strong lock
 Your love I know has been my rock
I know time no longer stands still as we become united together as one 
As God our heavenly Father says my children my work has been done 
Joining hand in hand two hearts become one and I proudly say our lives have begun
The race to the finish line we are determined to run 
As the world meets for the first time Mr. and Mrs. McGee
I'm humbled to say that lucky bride will be me 
We will take this world by storm through the example of faith we walk
Through honest communication we glide like the beauty of a hawk 
It's a privilege and a gift to know that you're going to be my husband 
But you're more than just that you're my inspiration 
And as we exchange vows that we've had since our first day together we promise
To be all that each other needs, wants, and ever could dream or imagine
Thanks to hard work discipline and remaining determined 
As our prayers were heard and answered the Lord said we were forever destined 
In honor of all he had in mind for us we will be strong and evolve to make our future ours for the making 
In awe of everything yet to come I promise to give you all I have and all that I am 
Before you God and our family we stand, joined hand in hand 
Celebrating our union today tomorrow and for eternity
Congratulations to husband and wife, we are presented with a bonding kiss
 Mr. and Mrs. John McGee 

I love you John McGee

Death

As I shiver in the cold
No where to hide
No where to go
To me they lied

Everybody to me said
We all love you so much
I believed it in my heart and my head
They lied the whole bunch

Life a prison it has become
No rights no privileges I have none
That is the answer that is the sum
I stand alone the only one

I care no more
Life isn't worth it 
My heart has been tore 
I'm a bottomless pit

I couldn't care less
An unloved person in this land
The truth to you I confess
I am dying in this sinking sand

I can take no more
I'm at the end of my rope
I'm tired of my live being tore
I have lost all hope

I have no reason to go on
No reason to fight
They should be happy for they have won
I'm blind to it all for I have lost my sight

How I suddenly long for the taste of death
To brush my lips and to hug my heart
To take with it my health
And allow me from this world to depart

They've stolen my life
And turned my hert to stone
Putting me through strife
I will no longer condone

The ones who have gone on before me 
Are lucky they no longer suffer like this
How long to be like them set free
How I wished my life would take that twist

Death I beg you to
Over my body take control
My heart and body take control
For God has my soul

Oh but for death to
Wrap its arms round me
To silence the pain so true
To release the chains and set me free

I'm tired of this all
The pain is too great
Down to the ground I fall
For this is my fate

No longer will I fight
A struggle to put on
I long to exit this night
No longer accept the lies an cons

How I long to knock at deaths door
My blessed Savior and family to see
To walk upon Heavens floor
To be happy and free

People say they care
But unto you they lie
The pain no longer will I bear
For I give up to die

No way out
No other choice to make
This I have no doubt
I beg God my life to take

Happy is but a word now
For that I never am
For this to you I vow
Around my heart I place a high dam


author's note
This was written several years ago when I had lost 2 of the most important people in my life 
and was having bad problems with everyone else in my life

Good-Bye God

Good-Bye God


One day I fell into a well of despair
Why God does no one care
I am finally at the end of my rope
For me there is no hope

My only sin was looking at the pretty girl
Her face more beautiful than a pearl
Want, Desire, Lust
If only I could have won her trust

I asked her to release me
She smiled and stared
But refused to set me free

Obsessive thoughts way to deep
Mind and soul heartbreak weep

But I now know I will never have her
I fear soon I will be dancing with cadavers
I long for death eternal peace
Only then will this female obsession cease

I was taught it is wrong to take a life
The priest told me to find a wife 
So this is the end
The damage I will soon do will never mend

Should I die by gun, noose, bottle or pill
Or take a leap from a high hill
Maybe God will send me a sign
Maybe a Heavenly Angel will throw me a line

Soon my suicide will fill Satan with pride
My Soul in the Lake of Fire will hide
Did Jesus ever Love me I cried

I can't go on like this
This Blonde Temptress
Robbed me of all bliss
Her beauty tormenting my soul and mind
Unholy woman kind

So I slowly put the gun to my head and said
Soon I will be dead
Good-Bye God
Now I am really going to blow my wad

But wait a voice said
Putting lead in your head will turn your rug red
The only thing that can save your mind and soul
Is to write your way out of this Obsession Hell Hole

God why did you put me down here 
At the bottom living in fear
I must write of these bastard evil thoughts
The Devil tried but my soul can not be bought

I will not let the demons win
I shall not kill myself it is a sin
So now I will become a writer
Keep writing mental fighter

Even if my written words make no sense
Writing makes the mind less tense
Someday my obsession will be lighter
With Heavenly Help
My future will become brighter

So
Damm the Demons
I’m through scream’n

God thank you for finally making my mental suffering go away
So I can stay here a little longer and play
And if no one ever reads my words
At least writing has made my mind 
As free as a bird

The Omen Road

I rode my bike down Omen Road,  
Knew they'd be after me, I'd reap what I sowed.  
Crossed into Jersey, saw a dead bird ahead—  
I prefer voices, I get symbols instead

In a pullout was a convertible with a man inside
He drew his finger across his nose, didn't approve this ride
By Greenwood Lake I smelled perfume as I climbed up the slope
I was tensing up, I was reaching the end of my rope

Heard two sarcastic guys in a parking lot
They could be talking about me, I hoped they were not
Should I keep on my course to Port Jervis Hotel?
Should I cut my trip short, heed the tolling bell?

(chorus)
For whom does the bell toll? Could it be me?  
Should I surrender my rights in the land of the free?  
It’s a grim kind of fate, riding this road,  
Where even roadkill is a phrase in a code.

 I cut through Warwick, a town old and serene
What I would encounter, who could have foreseen?
Passed a dead skunk on the road, who put it there?
Was I being paranoid, my accusation unfair?

Kept on a few miles, another dead skunk
I pinched myself, could I be drunk? 
Reached a platform, but no train in the station,  
Asked a bitter woman where I could find accomodation.

She sent me south, just a mile or two,  
But the motel was nowhere, her directions untrue.  
I asked a local man to search his cell phone
He found an old B and B that was not well known

The owners said I could stay, though it wasn't summer yet
This was an unexpected rescue, I felt in their debt
Next morning on the road, I ran into a dead fox
Does it pay to be clever, to think out of the box?

There’s a law of revenge, a law of crime,  
Their justice isn’t yours, nor is it mine.  
They were crusaders, but afraid of exposure 
I knew too much, there could never be closure.

Got to the Hudson, got on the train
No way to tell this story, all would think it insane
How can I go against sanity's flow?
When the mundane is an omen, what can I show?
If it can be explained away, it stays unknown
And the startled realization stays alone.

Once More

Author  Dana Redricks 
November 28, 2024

(Verse 1)
God keeps blessing me once more, this I know for sure. Every time I look around, He's opening another door. I've seen Him bring me through, so many times before. When I was broken and lost, He made me whole once more.

(Pre-Chorus)
When the night was dark, and I couldn't find my way, He turned my darkness into the brightness of the day. Time and time again, His love keeps shining through, God's been so good to me, His promises are true.

(Chorus)
Once more, God keeps opening up another door. Keep your head up, don't give up, His love's for sure. When shadows fall and the light seems far away, Just know that Yahweh, He will make a way.

(Verse 2)
There were times I felt like giving up, but He saved me. At the end of my rope, His grace came to carry me. God opened my eyes, now I can finally see, He freed me from my pain, my chains, my misery.

(Pre-Chorus)
When the weight was heavy, and the road was rough, His strength lifted me, and His peace was enough. He's my constant hope, my shelter from the storm, God's love surrounds me and keeps my heart warm.

(Chorus)
Once more, God keeps opening up another door. Keep your head up, don't give up, His love's for sure. When shadows fall and the light seems far away, Just know that Yahweh, He will make a way.

(Bridge)
He'll wipe away your tears, calm all your fears. Hold on to His hand; He'll lead you through the years.
When the world feels cold, and you're tired of the fight, Yahweh will step in, and make everything alright.

(Chorus)
Once more, God keeps opening up another door. Keep your head up, don't give up, His love's for sure. When shadows fall and the light seems far away, Just know that Yahweh, He will make a way.

(Outro)
Yahweh, Yahweh, He keeps opening doors once more, once more. Don't give up, don't give up, keep your head up, oh, oh.
Once more, God keeps blessing me, that's for sure. Yahweh will make a way, once more, once more.

Before Its Too Late

Im at the end of my rope.
Every other day its something else.
All you do is lie lie lie, and think of noone but yourself.
And when i call you out on it,
you didnt do anything wrong and im just trying to argue.
I dont know what to do with you. 
Sometimes It seems like we are so in love,
the happiest couple,
so head over heels for each other.
But other times we just fight and fight,
and neither of us gives in.
You do whatever you want,
no matter how it affects other people, even me.
And it turns into fighting.
Which turns into things being my fault,
i just want to argue,
im cheating on you.
I have NEVER given you reason to believe im cheating.
Ive done everything i can to show that im not.
But you still say i am.
Which blows my mind....
because you were CAUGHT cheating,
and if i ever say i dont trust you
you say im never letting the past go.
You are just so one sided,
angry and accusing.
And i really dont know how to deal with it anymore.
But i cant leave.
When you do this stuff,
i get so mad and just want to walk away.
But when i actually think about walking away,
i kno i cant do it.
You are my heart, my soul, my life.
I love you from the bottom of my heart.
All i want is for you to feel the same for me.
You say you do, and sometimes act like it.
But when you do things even though it hurts me,
when you lie, scream, cuss, and accuse,
it shows that you dont.
The way i love you, i could never do anything to hurt you.
I couldnt lie, cheat, or say hurtful things.
But you do it to me. 
That shows more than you think.
It depresses me that im writing more sad poems about us,
then love poems.
We are so perfect together...
when we arent fighting.
I dont want to live without you,
but i dont know how to fix us
when your not willing to step outside your box
and see things from the other point of view.
I can feel the end of us,
coming really fast.
And im praying that youll see the light,
before its too late.

Sin Sorry Sunday

It's now sin sorry Sunday, don't look so swell, take a look in the mirror, look like he'll, start thinking I'm tired of living this way I'm steadily getting older each and every day. I go out every night looking for a good time, the more I look the less I find, instead of getting ahead I'm falling further behind, It's time to break out, go a new route. So tired of living in dismay, you look to the Heavens, a start to pray.

Lord I go out with my friend's and keep finding myself deeper into sin. I'm just trying to be like everybody else, somewhere I have lost myself. Lord I know this is not me, after years of working and searching I'm still not in the place I want to be. Before I leave I put on a false face because I know I'm about to enter the retrace. I'm starting to feel it's all a waste. Lord Jesus will you take my case. When you party, drinking good liquor and good wine, you know it has come to an end, when you have to pretend to have a good time.

It has become a very bitter cup, I think it's time to put it down and go up. Lord I'm ready to make that Heavenly connection so you can guide me in the right direction. And how do I know the format, been there, done that. I thought the only way to cope was hanging with the crowd, drinking lots of liquor, doing big dope. It brought me to the end of my rope.  Now I didn't hear a voice, just a strong feeling, you have a choice. But the part I really resent, it took a mile to kick me before I got the hint.

Then I was told, the next hit or drink could take your last breath. I looked in the mirror, could see the face of death. But know this before you commence, you cannot straddle the fence. It's either up or down, swim or frown. It's not a riddle, it's simple, there is no middle. So while sitting at the crib, I cried, forget death, Lord I want to live. Then came the voice. Very Wise Choice
He took the sorrow away, no more sin sorry Sunday.

Like In My Dreams

Come to me like in my dreams, standing in the wind
Waiting for our whole lives to begin
Wont you please just come along
I swear nothing will go wrong
We'll take a ride on the seat of our pride
Make memories with every stride

Im gonna be there when you fall
So I can make sure you stand tall
And you'll be, everything that I know you can be

You whisper to me in the dark under the night stars
Of how you feel like you're living on Mars
Put your arms around me babe, let go of your shame
Cause all in all you know you're not to blame
Its called the past for a reason, you gotta let it go
Keep pushing forward to new plateau you know

Im gonna be there when you fall
So I can make sure you stand tall
And you'll be, everything that I know you can be

Spread your wings and fly with me, go to paradise
We'll wake up in the sunsets, and make love till sunrise
Do you really wanna run away or stay and fight?
Hold your ground and conquer what is right
I know you close your eyes and see the place you ought to be
Start believing in fantasies, 'cause soon you will be free

Im gonna be there when you fall
So I can make sure you stand tall
And you'll be, everything that I know you can be

Take my hand and dont look back, lets make our own way
We dont have to listen to what anybody has to say
I wonder how you do that, make me feel so full of hope
When I thought that I was at the end of my rope

Im gonna be there when you fall
So I can make sure you stand tall
And you'll be, everything that I know you can be

Come to me like in my dreams, but please dont let me wake
I wont gamble with this love, I know whats at stake
Please tell me that its real, dont leave me to weep
Cause if its fake then Im goin back to sleep

Im gonna be there when you fall
So I can make sure you stand tall
And you'll be, everything that I know you can be

God Is Good

I was going through the year feeling just fine, while writing my rhymes. Not a worry not a care, nothing to bear. Then here comes spring such a wonderful thing, didn't have an idea of what it would bring. I believed, it would be outstanding. I didn't know it would be so demanding.

I though, through this year I would cruse but instead I was singing the blues because I couldn't see what was ahead of me. One thing happened then another, I had to look for cover. So I started to look for advice, in the same place, can lighting strike twice? Something's trying to put me down, I mean, down for the count.

But I keep getting a strong feeling that says, you have to get back in the mount. Grab the horse by the reins, don't let it put you to shame and it can also drive you insane. So to The Lord I prayed, or down I would have stayed, Yes I would, but GOD IS GOOD.

Now have you ever tried something with all your heart but you kept coming up short. You try and you try it wont come out right, even though you try with all your might and you don't want anyone to see that you're uptight. So you walk around with a false grin because you want to feel exalted among men.

Deeper and deeper you start to sink, you pick up a smell, it's your life and it stink. 
But you hold your head up to show your're grown, you got backbone and you can't let anyone see that you feel so alone, so you walk around lost, like the rest of the clones.

Then you listen to people from every place, but everything you try slaps you hard, right in the face. Now I am writing this because it come to me and these things I have been through, it got to the point where I prayed, Lord I really need you. I was at the end of my rope in total despair, I though it couldn't get any worse and up jumped a Grizzly Bear. That should have been all she wrote, Yes it should.
GOD IS GOOD.

True Life

Guilty of life once lived in sections,
drastically making changes.
Concessions to new obsessions,
suffering identity exchanges.
Revision life's only pattern,
inborn self considered a sin.
Wherever did the facade end,
and my actual truth begin?
Mercurial soul.
Gale force wind on fire.
Searching recklessly.
Banishing true desire.
Stunted by fear.
Cut low by local society.
Angrily relating ashamed.
Depression continually haunting me.
Loving heart protected by rage.
Angel morphed to succubus.
Ignorant of a different way.
Residual burden of distrust.
No compass showing the way.
Pilgrim of self identity.
Fractured mind's weathervane, 
self destruction my proclivity.
I failed in my search.
Experienced life vainly, physically.
Blind to evolutionary growth.
Recently found enrichment, mentally.
Mistakes made youthfully, forgiven.
I look forward filled with hope.
Fortune smiled upon me.
Enlightened at the end of my rope.
If you believe in second chances,
first gift yourself one.
Explore your own depth, just once,
and you'll find life has just begun.
Presently, daily, I show for practice 
on life's uncertain field.
I want the ball, as a champion should.
Sprinting forward, I'll prove what life can yield.
When mortality knocks on my crypt,
I plan on being prepared.
Living life by my own script.
Lessons learned by decisions erred.
I'll take my place amongst the stars,
having shirked mortal coil.
Ready for what is next.
To my nature, proven loyal.
Come with me on this journey.
Banish need for acceptance.
Live your life entirely.
You'll only get one chance.
