boundless

Published September 28, 2023 by lamarrwenrich


feeling free
boundless feet
Soaking up the good
within the earth’s folds..
Sun is shining its’ warmth
inviting all to bask in its’ glow
don’t know the endless possibilities this day holds..
the days may number me
with the moments that unfold
challenges that abound
won’t turn me around..
I see my worth
I know my goals..

Love
it’s equal to the pain
most treasured hurt
so much to gain..
who could know
how much I’d change
the moment you said hello..
As I fade away
the picture is clear -
naked and afraid
I’m coming home..
Its’ warmth and
love stained walls
welcome me in
Tasting the sweetness
more alive than I’ve ever been
standing tall I begin..

Crystalized..

words disappear
reality sets in
left naked and open
baring it all..
no hiding behind shadows
or wearing words
with ambiguous meanings..
cutting my fingers off
regrets are done
no more ruminating
present moments have begun..
let your mind hear
what my heart feels
through my touch as it speaks..
give me your talk
I’ll give you mine
restless soul
slow down in time..
let’s be swept away
into that world of silence
we won’t touch ground
lost in the abyss..
my heart bleeds stardust
as the tears rolling down
crystalize from the euphoric effects of us..
wildly beautiful
such a rush..

a hungry ache..
the persistence
drawing compassion from my bones
to own all its’ wakened..
determination willing it to be..
there is nothing more to our story than the story itself..
we are who we are
the moments non-defining
in an overwhelming
non-binding kind of way..
Healing - revealing truths
small -ordinary -insignificant
making impossible fall away..
there’s pages to be written
stapling pieces back together
I’ll sit in the dirt with you
draw lines in the sand
let’s dirty our hands with life..
wash clean your heart
giving new color to all your strife
yearning longing for this new start..

Scenic heart..

landscape of my dreams
perfect in all it seems..
flourishing, watered, growing green
uninhibited wild and free..
drinking in the reality of who you are
no pretenses - no one cares
soak me up breathe my air..
illusions are exposed
thorny bushes overthrown
our story grows bright in this light
scenery overflowing
moment after moment of pure delight..
enticing, magnetic
holding on tight
let’s live the impossible possibilities
without fright..
when life gets tangled and weeds choke the seeds
don’t give in to the insidious disease..
follow the river till it washes over it
trail-blazing new ways
reviving ones’ heart
there within that trail
is our escape for a new start…

changing mirrors..

your soul is weary
depleted of life
the view obscured by
the commotion inside..
a mind so tender
fragments fly
as its’ grasping and winding through space and time
tugging, pulling, holding on tight
unable to let go of all that was left behind..
love is powerful
it can overcome the moments you think will leave you undone..
the time has come
just let go
you are worthy and golden
let’s take it slow
I see you for who you are
in the here and now..
don’t fear the shadows
change up your mirrors
keep looking through all your fears..
wrath - angry and strong -
once violated your love..
it’s powerless - losing its’ lust
becoming dust..
no longer alive in you
it’s been isolated, annihilated
the venom that once traipsed through your blood..
Reflections of changes
catapulting you upright
capsizing your heart
this restless soul is ready to be whole..

looking out
what remains
feeling like it’s all in vain..
misty, unclear covered in haze
my fingers tracing blindly
as my glazed eyes strain
looking searching
fixing my gaze..
out beyond the glare
are dreams i want to share
do I dare stand up
opening myself bare..
hoping, wishing, believing
someone will be there..
can’t sit still any longer
as the tears roll down my face
I’ll embrace this new space
allowing the moments to absorb
my fears..
barriers must fall
giving way to a new day
I’m yielding, willing to give it my all..
Only then I can belong to me
Completely free
Glass breaking
I am waking..

War with me..

Published March 6, 2023 by lamarrwenrich



fight big
battle strong
let’s fix the wrongs that don’t belong
two battleships that always miss
the fear of letting go what we know..
War with me
light or darkness let’s not fear
let’s be brave
walking it through
knowing we’re near..
we only lose
when we choose to hold on
step into the now
leave the past in your wake..
I’ll be your beacon
lighting you bright
let’s practice truth
no distractions pulling our roots..
solid ground is where we’ll be found
reason with me
come as you are
a new season is coming
washing us clean..
The dirty
the broken
all will be gone
the battle is over
the war is won..

land-marked..

shaping history
never ending
constantly shifting..
highs and lows
as it ebbs and flows
the highest honor
I’ll ever know..
challenged, questioned
admired, revered
loved, hated
I strap on my gear
ready to adhere
to the battles
only my heart could know..
I rise and I fall
with each breath i take..
reaching out
I take a stand
hands raised high
applauding
the supreme court of parenting -
the hardest job in all the land..

grounded..

let me land you
ground you
standing you tall..
the rain can’t drown you
the fire won’t burn you
stop running from it all
rid yourself of skin that holds you in
shedding yourself free
descend slowly into this love that envelops you
least we cease to be..
hear my heart sing
the words that bring you back
tears that fall away
I’ll catch them all..
touching down
you’ll feel the sounds of a heart
grounded and true..
