Whispers of unspoken goodbyes dance on the strings of my weary heart
Whispers of unspoken goodbyes dance on the strings of my weary heart,
Like a heavy shadow, a veil of black silk, wrapping around my wounded soul.
My breath catches in my throat, memories flooding like a merciless torrent,
And I remain suspended between what was and what could have been.
Our parting, an unfinished symphony, a final chord still

A Weary Heart
Author Dana Redricks
October 17, 2023
In the depths of solitude, I often ponder, am I worthy of love, or destined to wander? Rejected and wounded, never truly embraced, lost in a sea of tears, consumed by fears unlaced.
Do any souls comprehend this ache within me? The longing to be loved, accepted, set free? Yearning for solace,

My Weary Heart
I've built a fortress round my weary heart
which cannot be penetrated by your arrows and darts
the moat around it is frozen to its core
with a no ice skating sign hanging on my front door
your excuses are lame regarding your eminent domain
my drawbridge is now officially closed from all your pain

In My Dry and Weary Heart
In my dry, and weary heart
Lord, you are the rain!
In my shattered dream
Lord, your love comes rushing, glide me with hope!
In my unending storms
Lord, your peace held my heart in the safest corner!
When the ship of my dwelling place wrecked
When I find myself nowhere to fit
When all I see is thirst and hunger
When

Weary Heart
Oh weary grows my heart, my heart of fickle dames
who troth eternal love, yet o'er night die the flames.
A year not even shined upon our ever vows
uncouth became to you, strange and foreign am now.

Agony of a Weary Heart
A broken body
A shattered heart
A lonely soul
A dashed hope
is how his heart found mine
Found to mould what is left of it
More than a mate he is
Care and concern he brought along
with enduring love to flavour them
A perfect body
A warm blood
A big heart
and a youthful look
all sealed in one body
With promise of more
A heart broken

Poem From a Weary Heart
Decisions good, decisions bad
Either way it's happy or sad
Losing a job, or losing a friend
It's hidden but stays until the end.
Life's challenges are not really fair
Leaving our hearts in pieces, our minds in the air
Many find it true, to be extremely hard
Life's a game, choose your next card
Decisions that are like a two edged sword
Can

God, Spare My Weary Heart
The baleful words you say,
Leave painful scars in me
Permitting them to possess my heart
Oppressively.
Withstanding the bitterness and pain
You caused,
Conquering and diminishing me
By using your atrocity,
Feeling sadness flowing violently,
Warding happiness away,
Filling my eyes with hurtful tears
And meaningful pain,
Feeling the darkness reign.
God,
You’re my ally,
You’re the one I

Weary Heart
Weary heart
Like a thorny rose
Each prick blisters
Representing accumulated blows
Now thickly glazed
Cautious & patient these days
Yet not withered tart
This frosty rose
Immediately froze
Crimson cloved
Armor lost in a doze
Stranger, I'm agile
Cannot view me fragile
Straw-like and green stemmed
Silky petals easily unhemmed
Vulnerably swaying in an evening breeze
Keep your distance, please
To the chosen few
I ask, “Will I ever learn
To let my
