Canvas me..

Published March 12, 2020 by lamarrwenrich

unbleached cloth
your love seeping through me…shaping my heart until it’s tightly woven…a canvas to you – Paint me what you will…my colors vibrant by your gentle touch – happy to mix it up…changing shades in your storm – set sail with me – in the sea of love we have formed…

    Rooted..

    solid strong our house won’t fall… bones are good changing with time like petrified wood… banged around chips hit the ground… melodic pain it’s worth the gain… we scatter but won’t shatter into pieces we don’t know… we built us well… time will tell

      Symphony of you..

      Published February 11, 2020 by lamarrwenrich

      Tugging, pulling 

      the music is cued..
      Heart strings dangling  
      waiting on you..
      wound up tight 
      Fill me with dread 
      Or sheer delight..
      It’s a choice 
      your choice
      which do you choose…
      elaborate 
      full spectrum 
      You bring on the charm
      Symphony in my head
      sound the alarm..
      it’s music 
      our music 
      we don’t skip a beat
      Let’s waste moments together 
      while we bruise in the heat..
      blood vessels may rupture but what do we care 
      a little discoloring 
      we will not scare..
      We’re classic 
      complex 
      symphonic at best..
      our love is relentless 
      when put to the test..

      Only just begun..

      moments are fleeting
      my heart is bleeding 
      feels incomplete..
      was it enough
      did I reach you 
      teach you 
      as I become a mime with time..
      does your heart know what mine has sown 
      from the moment you began..
      words collapse on my tongue as I become undone 
      in awe of the human you have become..
      independent

      confident
      you wear it well..
      breaking free 
      while I hold so
      tight
      reigning you in with my might..
      my heart overflows with stories untold..
      beaming with pride 
      I’ll let your hopes dance
      not fearing the past that cannot last..

      Liquid sunshine…

      burning through my bones
      whiskey to my soul 
      we come to life with the love we’ve sown 
      the only home I’ll ever know..
      dancing in the breeze 
      free as the leaves 
      floating through air..
      Love is what it does 
      We are what we do 
      So simple I dare..
      I drink you in
      you are my skin..

      Scorched

      Published January 30, 2020 by lamarrwenrich
      searing 
      burning
      lighting my core 

      you cut
      twisting, turning 
      leaving no spot..
      the screaming in my soul it can’t be whole..
      I want to soar 
      touch the sky
      feel the sun 
      till I’m high..
      in my eyes you’d see the
      sunshine till it made you cry..
      if your wanderlust settled 
      you’d stay awhile..
      A tale we could tell 
      you’d know me well..

      This is love..

      Bruised knees to bruised hearts 
      every moment – a new start..
      you give
      you take 
      we grow through heartache..
      searching 
      wandering 
      leading me through 
      Beautiful ghosts I always knew 
      you give and I live..
      Memories within 
      never grow old..
      invaluable, priceless
      we slowly unfold..
      I’ll dance with the shadows of all that we know 
      you color my heart vibrant 
      our story untold..

      the rain came..

      you chose to stay 
      chasing the sun until my heart you won
      clearing the melancholy 
      sharing the joy..
      the unknown looming 
      my eyes watching 
      pondering the beauty you bring to my heart..
      In the losses 
      the dark spaces 
      you continued to give..
      the rain came 
      each drop washing away the old..
      you didn’t run
      turning us around 
      we’ve begun…

      Beauty mark..

      you’ve taught me well
      you’ve  loved me long 
      showing me I do belong.. 
      accept what is
      the fight is done 
      no escaping from the one..
      it’s all within 
      the storm inside
      letting go I will not hide..
      showing me scars I never knew 
      you trace them all through and through..
      cherishing the bruises 
      Loving me deeply 
      your beauty mark stamps them 
      it completes me..

      soul like mine..

      Published November 19, 2019 by lamarrwenrich
      soul synced with  mine 

      Oh the secrets it could tell  
      Tall tales pursue us
      we live them well..
      soul that looks at me 
      without saying a word 
      Telling me everything I’ve never heard..
      how could you know 
      what do you see..
      With its’ eyes I’m hypnotized 
      With its’ breath 
      I’m whole 
      A life of its own 
      we have sown..
      All of you embodied in me
      All of me in you 
      I see
      a soul like mine 
      hearts devine..
