Hail to Me

Published January 7, 2018 by lamarrwenrich

Lips are moving

I can’t hear you

Heart is beating

I can’t feel you

shielded in,

Covered, protected

so well guarded..

all smiles tucked away for another day..

Never to light my face again..

Not a dimple, not a twinkle

No not even a sliver

Least the house of cards come crashing down..

Fire away &

Stand back

The ricochet will slam you hard..

The holes you feel and see are me disappearing

never to be seen again

the decay of you & me is all I see

A chapel built around the image of we..

No longer what we were once meant to be..

broken down – on my hands and knees..

Let’s set our hearts free

reach for me please..

Crookeds and Straights

Published December 27, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

zig zagging..

crooked or straight

Lines

created from life..

past & present

join, intersect and form us..

binding us tight

The memories

What we hold near&dear

become our truths..

what we see, what we feel, what we believe to be real

Is how we deal..

it can grow us or

ravage us

choices to be made..

It is ok and sometimes

it is right to live in the crookeds..

There will be no finding the straights..

For there to be a shadow

There has to be light

let your focus be on the bright..

Our Soundtrack

Published December 13, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

Stay lost..

Lost in our dance

never find your way out..

Let it be me

Only me you see

As you move your feet to our beat..

that rhythm of pure sweet..

Love

Love only me in the sea of hopes & dreams where nothing is like it seems..

For my sway will stay –

no matter if you’re sitting & I’m standing or

You’re running & I’m walking

The picture in your mind and the soundtrack of my heart create the perfect harmony..

and I am bending, stretching and syncing to your every move..

Lost in the rhythm & blues of our rock’n’roll..

Unparalleled

Published November 25, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

It’s done

You won..

soothing words settling my soul

You inspire a beautiful burning hunger within..

What is it worth

if it lacks love..

What does it prosper if I can’t find my way out..

You gave me direction in my lost world –

raw, real, honest

One of a kind – planting me so firmly

I will sway every which way – yet never loose my footing

The more I understand the less I know..

I only know

You give all you have –

Unparalleled..

The very best

Because it is for us..

Stitches..

Published November 19, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

 

Burgeoning, flourishing, alive..
each moment budding into a better person..
Awakened..
suddenly aware of how much life is in each moment;
lived or wasted by choice..
the trajectory of the moments changing..
sending me flying into orbit as I discover the many shapes of me..
My heart – a geometry of sorts..
Lines curves and angles all intersecting..
an arrangement of the parts of my heart all stitched together into a beautiful symmetrical love..

Ugly Beautiful

Published October 26, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

battered, bruised and chipped apart

but we are solidly rooted

grounded in love..

misshapen – with an unspoken beauty-

an inward badge of hope, courage and strength..

We stand strong

like the statuesque oak tree that weathers the storms –

as it creaks and moans in its’ twists & turns..

we -too- bend to the mighty winds – growing in wisdom, connecting and forming to other branches – until we are so solid – no force can shake us..

standing firm in our twisted stance – we are beauty –

catching the eyes of passersby

sharing feelings of great expectations and desires of hope..

A Ray of Hope

Published October 9, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

Im releasing you free

unearthing you from the ties that bind

though you don’t know you need to be

helping you see

giving you back you

You don’t need anyone to think for you anymore..

You are wonderfully, imperfectly made

The merry-go-round you live on is spiraling down

Jump off

Let it out

Let it go

change up the sorrow you wear so well –

with inside joy

Let it stretch your face with laughter and

Set you free from

Your cage..

your light will shine in..

Untempered 

Published September 27, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

Love..

full of raw emotion 

and vulnerabilities..

beautiful, full of life 

And terrifying in its’ unknown..

love beyond your sensibilities 

immerse yourself into the moments 

they are yours to live 

To explore

Put your hand in the Flame

Let it set you on fire 

exist in untempered love 

Unmoderated..

Go as high as the flame will burn before it dies out..

That spark 

will rekindle time after time 

good or bad 

Happy or sad 

shred the moments 

Devour them..

Love in itself is both intense and beautiful 

Better to be skinned alive 

than to never know

a love not lessened by anything..

Au Revoir..

Published September 19, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

I wished to live..

pleading, begging on my knees at times..

struggling for the good,

fighting for air,

my fight wild and everywhere..

aiming for high

for every low..

somehow You thought not

how could You know..

How can that be?

I gave it my all

No holds barred..

through the decimation of my heart and a raping of my soul I persevered..

yet somehow You see through eyes of old, of new, of past and present

Of things to be..

help my loves now

see through fresh eyes,

eyes of yours..

ones that see hope through despair,

ones that see light through dark,

Eyes that stay open

as mine close to rest..

I’m letting go now

For I believe

I once was lost but now I’m free..

The child in my heart will always rise above..

Seeking, hoping,

Knowing there is more to come..

Wild&Mysterious

Published September 13, 2017 by lamarrwenrich

the draw is unimaginable.. my heart & mind can’t reconcile the mystery of you..

It is wild

Beautiful in its’ unknown

Captivating without touch.. yet you know me inside out

You have this mysterious way of reading me,

changing me,

renewing me..

There is a pitch and cadence to you that causes thunder in my heart..

You have my attention

I will be patient

my time is yours..

nothing has nourished my soul like this

Nothing can compare..
