your end..

Published August 13, 2022 by lamarrwenrich 




jagged, rough, sharp, hard 
piercing my heart
these pieces of shard.. 
let me soften your edges 
smooth your soul 
for my weary heart needs you whole.. 
running towards nowhere 
I’m searching you out 
to see through your eyes 
to understand lies that hold you tight..
truth is hard 
It’s all we have 
let it mold you 
hold you 
as you lay with me..
feel yourself go
let the earth undo the bondage holding you down 
come alive inside 
as you give way to colliding with life… 
breath it in 
let it out 
this is where you begin your end..


Looped..

Been here before 
done it all wrong 
somehow someway 
now you’re a song
beautiful melody lulling me strong..
pulling me in
there is no win
obstacle course that goes and goes 
shaping me making me 
the heart knows no bounds.. 
all of it turning me round and round
Spinning spun I hit the ground 
Right back where I begun..
is there an exit 
I choose to ignore 
I’d rather hang in and live with a roar.. 
love is a gift so much to explore 
Encircle my heart 
I choose to stay 
I’ll be your prey..

Perfect Storm

Published June 15, 2021 by lamarrwenrich 




always so right 
connected tight..
from the heart 
to the fingertips
you delight..

tangled  up 
hands & Feet
hearts 
thoughts 
mind unwinds..
upside down 
Inside out 
All around 
drowning alive 
in you I thrive..

a rare chance 
a lifetime dance 
how long will I want you 
how long will we be 
as long as the sea flows 
there’s a you and me..

combustible 
wonderful 
particularly mad
perfection in the storm
Intoxicated by love 
until  it’s been had..


speak to me..

words alive
thriving within
springing fresh life
where we’ll begin..
becoming your poetry
undressing me slow
Layer by layer
as we go…
revealing the depths
of things unknown..
a wanton need
for you to read
all that I am..
exposing a spirit that can’t be tamed
a love that won’t be named..
hang in my wait time
as we discover anew
the many things we never knew..
mysterious and painful
it may be..
let’s delight
in watching us grow
it is food for our souls that will be whole..

    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..

    diseased by love

    Published April 13, 2019 by lamarrwenrich

    the more i know

    the further i go

    sinking into that rabbit hole…

    It owns me

    dethrones me

    setting apart my heart

    Bleeding me through depleting what i knew..

    Part of me dies as i come alive..

    beautiful disease

    do what you please

    cure me from the rot that eats my heart..

    messy, chaotic, tangled and swept

    adversely affected is all that I’ve kept..

    Strange steps take us back

    The cinder beneath guiding our feet

    our minds go quiet

    While our hearts riot..

    in awe

    amazed, uncertain

    unsure

    of all that our mind had never heard..

    i hope this illness

    can heal us

    from all we’ve come to be

    You’ve chiseled me down

    I’ll wear this madness of you

    like a crown..

    Regretful delight..

    Bittersweet you..

    painful and pleasant regretful delight..

    your aroma soothes my soul

    such a pitiful sight..

    my heart skips a beat with the aftertaste sweet..

    in my haste

    I failed to see

    the deceit,

    the greed,

    and the pretense of your need..

    I bow out with grace

    no hate on my face

    leave me be I plead

    left alone

    to wallow in disgrace..

    I harbor no ill will..

    for still – be as it may

    I will display

    Only the good..

    my home full of memories

    a mixture of sad with a heart full of glad..

    an ending that must come – though it leaves me undone..

    Bloodstained..

    I will never forget what it is like to be lost and free..
    I will always know what it is like to be found and bound..
    we went round & round
    until my sounds were silenced
    You never understood
    My heart was your design
    the markings of you permanent..
    The ink has dried
    yet on & on we go..
    even though our song is no longer sung
    you are all I know..
    Who could blame me
    I didn’t want just the flame
    I wanted my turn to feel the burn and to
    consume me..
    You collect the debts of my soul
    You paint the pictures in my mind
    You paint the pictures in my heart
    You will follow me in my new start
    As I’m
    Blood stained by the likes of you..

    a Blessing and a Curse..

    Published March 6, 2018 by lamarrwenrich

    Blessed it be the mystery of love..

    not to be solved -broken down or tamed..

    Love has no name – it beats to its’ own game..

    I lived for this endless wonder

    Thrived in its’ unspeakable beauty

    grew by the sounds of love

    until I never knew this kind of blue that it possessed..

    my world went silent

    sharpest quiet cut me down until

    my ears could no longer hear

    My heart could no longer bear..

    Yet I’ll always care for this lovely game of love that causes such despair..

    Cursed it be the mystery of love..

    Free as the sea..

    Published March 4, 2018 by lamarrwenrich

    Jealous of the night that wraps you in its’ intoxicating moments..

    The moon that rocks you tender as you slumber..

    envious of the sun that shakes you gently with its’ morning hello..

    Oh that you could see my light and how it revolves around you

    That my heart was still the beacon that lit you up..

    You closed your eyes and it went black..

    So I’ll grieve and

    My heart will bleed

    Yet I’m removing the shackles that bind me

    I’ve done my time..

    I won’t sulk anymore

    Nor dwell on the memories

    I’ve kissed them goodbye

    No – I will not steep in sadness or misery like a bitter tea..

    I choose to keep moving and let my heart be as free as the sea..

    a part of your soul will always keep me whole..
