the map of you..

Published September 29, 2019 by lamarrwenrich

we’ve lived 

we’ve loved 
you fill my soul 
I mapped out the route of loving you whole..
it’s endless & growing 
as life moves you about
in its’ all knowing 
it shows all your sides 
even the inaccessible parts you try to hide..
there’s beauty within 
the hidden treasures of your heart..
a collection of all that’s been and to be 

has taken us places pinned for you and me..
our worlds always turning 
shifting us so
melding your pieces into mine as we go..
one step at a time 
let’s walk toward the spaces where adventure awaits us..

inevitable..

arms flail open 
life spins you round 
staying up as you hit
the ground 
I feel you crumble in my outstretched arms 
the tears you hide 
my heart soaks up inside..
not by accident 
nor design
we were granted time..   
let’s live
let’s give
somethings lost somethings gained 
one thing is certain
we won’t stay the same..  
there’s more than this –
more than the worst thing it has done –
love may have lost
it comes at a cost.. 
you will live on within 
immortal in me 
I’ll be your voice and 
live out the choice you fought to have.. 
I love your smile 
wish you’d stay awhile..
bold in your walk
a sight to behold 
There is beauty in the inevitable
or so I’ve been told.. 

rains in her heart..

Published September 9, 2019 by lamarrwenrich

silenced heart

no where to start..

lips tremble with fear

closing them tight

she’s filled with fright..

If she lets her tongue loose

will she hang by the noose..

what is right

what is wrong

where do you belong..

why so afraid..

sway with the moments

bend with the flow..

today is yesterday forgotten

let it go..

Lost in tomorrow’s unknown

it rains in her heart

Washed away by the tides of history

let’s restart..

Trace the moments

as your mind rewinds

let it find you back to mine..

Bound..

Scale it down

soften the blow

Fleeing from the gust that throws me so..

slipping away

unafraid

reality or fiction

who’s to say..

Unrequited dreams

How loud they scream

saying so much more

I choose to ignore..

walking along the gentle shores

The peace it roars

so beautifully loud

Hidden well within this spell

Twine me up

Bind me tight

the shroud of you is my delight..

Between the lines..

Published August 13, 2019 by lamarrwenrich

Line by line

the words keep time

each designed to mark you mine..

Eyes wide open

Hungry heart

seeking truth from the start

we grow, we mold

we cave, we fold

between the lines

Our story is told..

Page by page

We are made new

grown from all we didn’t know..

Our story

left to share and teach

that love is a gift

It inspires us best..

In time

for each

the curtain must fall..

intertwined souls through it all…

an adventure lived

a tale told

though grounded now

it will never grow old

our hearts a sieve

so much to give..

Onto the stage..

no moments wasted..

yesterday’s are disappearing..

Dreaming the dreams

scheming my things

bringing them to life

before I lose sight of any landmark to my heart that leads me there..

The devil is in the details they say

play it out anyway

Quiet souls, feisty goals

we broke all rules..

history shared

with so much care

Your essence radiates through the tear..

If It wasn’t a dream before the break

my heart is now

fully awake..

walking onto the evolving stage with fright, delight and anticipation

the unknown grabs my soul and I am whole..

feet tracing the lines that will wind me there

here I come

without a care..

Dopamine

straight to my heart

electrifying love

you own my brain in all that remains..

I’m up

I’m down with you around

chemically addicted

I hit the ground..

my euphoria

my bliss

afraid to let go..

what will I miss

will I sleep walk through this

all things in strife..

I’ll take the pain

All things to gain

when it leads to the one where my heart remains..

he smiles..

golden embers shining through..

untouchable, unreal in all he knew..

A creature of perfection stood him still

garnering the attention of anything real..

magical powers within her soul

intertwine his

making him whole..

Exquisite magnificence – how can it be..

hypnotic brown eyes say much in their glow

igniting a bright smile with lips of gold..

Beauty so rare, it’s one of a kind

A gift to all of mankind..

vibrant and real – his zeal overflows

her aura exudes kindness and love

her ambience sets the stars above..

she’s oblivious, unaware of all the stares

her innocence an appealing and charming delight

he smiles in awe at such a sight..

She’s graceful and carefree in all her ways

flowing through the days as floating clouds

she lights the way like the rays of the sun..

this goddess

this wonder

her beauty within

flows like the sea from his heart to his feet..

She conquers, she rules

she’s strong with reason

his angel his love

For her he’ll do treason..

watch her go

let her be

her strength is her

She will always be free..

Not as we are..

Drunk on you

Obliterated clean

higher than high till Im wiped out of sight

I see things as I am

Not as we are..

seeing without eyes

you have delivered me whole

The absence of guilt doesn’t free you

from stealing my soul..

done it

did it

you’ve stolen my past

it’s not who I am

I’m only a mask..

Beware what you dream

your wishes aren’t what they seem..

Fond of my walls

How far will we fall..

won’t you tell me now

all the things you fear

I’m ready to hear..

Hands around my throat

hold me tight

a sliver of me you break

I’ll hold you dear

let me be clear

I’ll be your best nightmare..

rain is just rain..

conditions created

Scars circle the heart

Rain is just rain

I drowned from the start

lost site of my landmark

with the losses blue..

You light up the dark night

Magic bright..

doling out pieces of you

memories delight..

black & blue

I’ll bruise for you

the blood beneath my feet

you help renew..

a richness, a peace

has settled me new

a sanctity to just being

I never knew..

few attain this goodness

it’s sacred, it’s rare

for you I will bear the wounds and the hurt..

scarred for life with love and all its’ strife..
