alive in the fall…

Published March 22, 2020 by lamarrwenrich

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…

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..

    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..

    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..

    soul like mine..

    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..

    the map of you..

    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..

    Between the lines..

    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..
