Sweet death..

Published August 20, 2018 by lamarrwenrich

stretched so tight I no longer feel..

the impenetrable wall

The divide growing

as our hearts are sowing new paths..

Opposition to one another

Fighting for space in the canvas of your heart..

Until I say no more

no more to saying yes

Freeing myself to choose..

Only when I’m free

Can i keep the monsters at bay

The ones I can’t see that choke the air out of me..

I knew this day might come

though I knew you were my truth..

there’s no comfort in waiting for the last beat of our hearts

Let it die before that starts..

But mostly

I need you to look out and see

you will always be a part of me..

Best of me…

I want to drink the air

Live in the sunset

taste the water

emerge from it new

washed clean from all I’ve seen..

layer after layer I shed my skin

Looking for the freedom of where to begin

Only to find the same eyes pulling me back again..

What does it matter that I shed the outside gone-

my insides whirl round and round owning me strong..

I could choose to give in to all of my sins

Or reach out my hand to the one I know so well –

The best of me..

There you are standing tall

I exist because you chose to fall

Thank you for loving me through it all

Play Me..

our melody hit every note

fine tuning its’ way for the perfect pitch that became you & I..

you sing through me

Vibrating my heart strings

until they hum a love so sweet

I hear it in my heartbeat

traipsing through my veins

wafting throughout my being

humming your way to my heart until it became our home

our love is like a soldier

standing strong

Loyal to us – it rights all wrongs

I learned a love song

my heart will never be empty

for your melody always plays softly throughout me..

My soul to keep..

Your mind

my thoughts

It mattered not..

the essence of you and i weaved a soul of love unknown..

the joy boundless

sealing us tight..

It won’t matter what is written or the

words spoken out loud but never given..

we lived it freely

We lived it real

until time stood still..

I couldn’t stay, I can’t pretend

My heart went silent..

I lost my way when I couldn’t feel the beating of my mainstay..

So now I lay me down to sleep

for my soul needs yours in order to keep..

I hope they know

I pray they see

Though life’s unfair

we’ll find our way in every sphere..

Breath of my breath

Breath upon my bones

Your heart is my home

I don’t walk alone..

we meld into each other

forming a love with a shape of its’ own..

like the beauty created by the drippings of candle wax..

each time it’s lit up, we set the sky on fire

absorbed into a sphere of our own..

I reopen you time and again..

caught up in our space i come undone

Blinded as if I’m touched by the sun..

colors so vibrant – woven tightly as one

Like a rainbow that has only just begun..

You color my heart

You warm my soul

feeling every shade you’ve splashed from the start

my heart is on fire

my soul is aflame

Forever and ever it will paint your name..

Lego heart..

The heart breaks just a little.. the love runs deeper still

certain this chasm cannot be real..

I think I love you better now than all the years before..

Tattooed on my heart is

Intense, wonderful you..

every twist, every turn

I know you inside out..

I’ll trade my heart in exchange for yours- building each time –

a fresh new start..

my sweet imagination is what I choose

It somehow chases away the blues..

everything seems worse in black & white –

I’m gonna pick up the pieces and color them in

and when things go wrong – I’ll color again..

We’ll build and we’ll fall

but we will stand tall

This lego heart refuses to give in to it all..

Create with me – build with me a colorful home

and the pieces of our lego heart will have strong bones..

The heart breaks just a little – our colors run deep

We’re as bright as the sun

And dark as the night..

we are beauty expressed in our lover’s delight

Piece by piece

Our heart will take flight..

Believe in..

Trust..

it’s a simple word

yielding so much power..

It renders us fragile..

Misconstrued

Misunderstandings

first casualty of any relationship..

It’s a slippery slope..

so many meanings to each person..

Who defines what it is..

We all know what “trust” is supposed to mean..

But life gives it our own meaning –

shaping and forming us in ways not expected..

trust takes on a life of its’ own filling in the gaps and holes of our soul

So that we might feel whole..

We smile and carry on

talking ever so loudly with nothing to say

hoping it covers what’s hidden inside..

tethered and beaten

exhausted and worn

no more taping up all the torn

Still I will love

Still I will trust

For I am not a victim of all that life thrusts..

I’ll throw you my rope

there you’ll find hope

as we twist and turn on this slippery slope..

open your heart

Let me inside

we will be strong

for there’s nothing to hide..

Take me there..

Empty me whole

You will find me full

Brimming over with love..

Holding it tight—I am not afraid

I know who you are when I’m not looking

Better yet

Who I am when I’m with you reveals everything within and then some..

Take me there..

to that land of dreams wishes and hopes..

I want to know everything

leave nothing out..

let’s walk to this place where everything else is erased

Show me where life and love intersect

The place where our hearts connect..

Snapshots

Published May 20, 2018 by lamarrwenrich

snapshots of my heart..

a growing collage of us created from the start..

we grew like a pixel – multiplying over and over until the image of our love covered us whole..

Reel by reel

You play me..

unaware how you slay me..

3D explosions in my heart right from the start..

Can’t escape the moonlight of your eyes

Your reflection is everywhere

You burn bright within

I’ll give in

I’ll step out of the darkness and let you light the way..

we may be amateurs at this

but the impression you left on my heart snapshot me back to life

we have created quite a collection of where we’ve been and what’s to be..

I’m so glad to be part of this story..

I’ll remain..

Keeping it safely between the lines

you remain blind..

The walls of your mind so unkind..

shouting, yelling – such a grind

you’re heavy, you’re weary

shaking on unstable ground..

no more running

no more hiding

No more sliding into despair..

Your eyes show the strength of how much you care..

break down the walls

open those eyes – let me inside

What did I learn through your walk of pain..

to love us new all over again..

To love us through & through

I’ll never quit growing,

I’ll never quit showing

how much more I have to pour into your heart..

And there I’ll remain, until you’re ready to start..
