Runs deep..

the river runs deep..
mysterious life it leads 
don’t know how it’ll go 
flowing with its’ lows 
rising with its’ highs 
we’ll twist & turn taking it slow 
dousing out the fires when we lose 
hope..

My home
My heart 
My crypto-night 

daunting
Haunting 
thoughts of you..
impossible to deal
as you steal the core of me
can’t reel in the anticipation 
of all you are..

fruition of love as the water flows 
Between you and me 
with each wave we grow
In ways only we know..



like heroin..

the walls kept moving
in so tight 
my feet kicking and shoving 
looking for light 
till I was wrung out 
strung out 
nowhere to go..
the bright dimmed
realizing there was no win
I gave in..
my time got small 
haunted by the past 
searching for things that couldn’t last..
letting go to the innocence i once knew 
I dare my soul not to break 
compulsive and chronic 
I’ll attach it to hope..
desires and daydreams 
pull me upstream 
taking me to that place between sleep and awake..
mind is lit up 
addictions renewed 
love is my anchor 
I’ll no longer hate..



million little things..

state of being..
sharing love laughter and pain..
affection and its’ beauty 
creating connection 
spanning through a lifetime
enduring every season..
changes come 
unraveling without reason..
its’ purpose well served 
without sadness we’d miss the taste of sweetness
changes go
there we grow..
living out the joy of this friendship we have come to know..
your smile changes dark to light 
invisible strings binding us tight.. 
The laughter 
a friendship 
it’s pure delight..
eternal friendship

I choose…

you’re here
you’re there..
In the walls i feel you
In the books I hear you 
In the space that times forgetting..
spilling over and covering  me whole..
that face hidden
untouchable 
boxed away for another day 
while I search for ways to run..
your love 
absorbs my mind 
dwells in my heart.. 
maybe one day
I’ll come down from it 
for now I choose to stay..

In the light..

Cluttered
Buried 
lost in the shuffle 
deeper & deeper 
into the shadows you fall…
confusion abounds
all your madness 
your sadness 
rallying around…
don’t fear the inevitable 
don’t fear the dark 
your secrets and scars 
they are who you are…
soul wrenching and beautiful 
you’re never alone 
your worth is revealed 
your essence renewed…
hold those moments closely 
as you’re opened up wide…
Inescapable shadows 
define us all
stay in the light 
so they shine bright… 
shed the skin 
the baggage you’re in 
as pure beauty is discovered 
watch your shadow rise 
to an inevitable end..







Perfect Storm

    always so right 
    connected tight..
    from the heart 
    to the fingertips
    you delight..

    tangled  up 
    hands & Feet
    hearts 
    thoughts 
    mind unwinds..
    upside down 
    Inside out 
    All around 
    drowning alive 
    in you I thrive..

    a rare chance 
    a lifetime dance 
    how long will I want you 
    how long will we be 
    as long as the sea flows 
    there’s a you and me..

    combustible 
    wonderful 
    particularly mad
    perfection in the storm
    Intoxicated by love 
    until  it’s been had..


    My cup…

    Published May 19, 2021 by lamarrwenrich 



    it runneth over 
    trickling down 
    sweet nectar is found
    releasing its’ crown 
    cleansing & healing 
    creating new sound..
    truth from noise 
    the bitter from sweet 
    lighting the dark
    grounding my feet..
    it’s sorrow 
    It’s joy
    eternally linked 
    like day & night 
    both equally sweet..
    every last drop of me 
    bows at your feet 
    It’s beauty 
    It’s wonder 
    my cup runneth over
    there is no defeat..


    between the moments…

    Published May 15, 2021 by lamarrwenrich 



    between the moments of living and dying 
    there are moments divine 
    We are many kinds of beautiful.. 
    watching the sun set one last time 
    the beauty in the darkness
    the hope in the empty
    And the warmth in the coldness of goodbyes..
    There is a morning after 
    We won’t have to search anymore..
    fascinated how we can become undone 
    yet remain as one..

    Tricks of time..

    It marches on
    passage of time 
    clutching on to everyone..
    you think you’ve won
    mastering the moments of it all
    catching you off guard - 
    you slowly fall..
    friend or foe 
    Who’s to know 
    it gives as much as it takes..
    it’s a gift 
    Let’s not hate nor escape 
    we aren’t glass
    we won’t break 
    let’s celebrate each moment 
    we awake...
    It takes us up 
    It takes us down
    often times left spinning round..
    the tick is tocking 
    the beauty of life talking 
    waiting to share its’ moments of love..
    Don’t despair 
    be the rare one who knows 
    what he’s won..
    impossible to hold 
    it disintegrates into gold..
    time is always new 
    the ticking has just begun..


      Tapestry…

      Published March 25, 2021 by lamarrwenrich 




        bits of blue — for all my stories lived 
        bits of gold —for the ones untold 
        Vibrant life of colors 
        for all the dreams I hold..
        my hand has never been empty 
        my heart overflows..
        the outpour bleeds of the beauty deep within 
        the folds of joy rippling over into 
        the sorrows 
        shaping out the hollow..
        I weep for the dark spaces as the tapestry unravels
        I marvel at the beauty that rises back 
        Smiling as the colors seep 

        Creating the ever changing glow 
        I’ve come to know...
