in the quiet
I’m there…
when you’re not looking
unaware…
the lull of my voice
leads you there…
Loud in your heart
pushing and pulling
leaving no choice…
what will you do
who is it that rules…
Can’t part the sea
to reach the shore…
Undertow looming
till you’re no more…
The ground racing toward you
alive in the fall…
I’m hidden in the details
Greatest secret of all…

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..
Published February 11, 2020 by lamarrwenrichmoments 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..
Scorched

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..
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..
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..

So can love…
Published November 2, 2019 by lamarrwenrich
You cover my soul in the whisper of your words..
inspire and delight me
filling me whole..
Tender, captivating
connected throughout,
connected throughout,
Waxing eloquently about my heart
If pain can echo
So can love
a bit of madness from above..
a bit of madness from above..
No mystery in the quiet
no fear in the unknown..
no fear in the unknown..
a challenge to my mind
a miracle to my heart..
i am but clay
pliable and willing from the start..
beautiful creation
as your words shape me
your love turns me
molding my way..
Drifting away..
Published October 17, 2019 by lamarrwenrichwords now elude me
It’s just not the same..
I scream out your name
to the silence reverberating the emptiness of pain..
my mind lost in time
searching for the place that was once mine..
i took your hands
we joined life
together we faced all its’ strife..
I feel you here
yet you’re no where near..
I quietly watch as you subside
You are the one my heart can’t hide..
rare
Beautiful
Uniquely you
A recipe of our own
we honed to share..
You heighten my senses
awaken my core
my soul is fighting strong to belong once more..
with each breath you breathe
I grieve..
for I know what I know
as you slowly drift away..
The kindest love is letting you go..
will I stand
Will I sink
as I slip to the brink
when your fingers loosen mine for the very last time..

the map of you..
Published September 29, 2019 by lamarrwenrichwe’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..
Published September 21, 2019 by lamarrwenrich
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..
