A Heart Set Free - A Word by Moe


on this night of contemplation, the poet sits to whisper about a love in the longing and the beauty therein. as if to say... goodbye my love... till hopeful "next time" come...

across a miles long digital pond, he gazed upon her digital frame and found her familiar. he heard her digital breath and thought it soothing. he looked into her digital soul and saw her heart was made of flesh and blood. beating alive with a passion that cracked all waves that came her way and with it, a blood that bore his name... not unlike his own.

a sudden rush, this beauty's hush of intermittent silence. all at once... smitten and "seen". her laugh, her cry, her rage... her unwanted cage. all making her the more beautiful at every glance. a potential partner worthy of a dance that wills itself the chance... at a love so reckless... it would generate a silent fear of pain.

he pondered what her skin would feel like on the tips of fingers, what her lips would taste like teased across his own & what her naked body would feel like pressed against his flesh. the soft, the hard... her beauty on his beast... the poet on his page... the frustration in his rage left him... wanting.

these "good things" that come and go. all we forget and all we know... they may not last but for a season. but alas my seasons are eternal. they are chapters in a strange book that includes characters that show up from time to time to let me know just how temporary they are... and how beautiful their coming and going is to me. the pain of the pine of a beauty so fine is worth the breaking of my heart... and the renewing of the same. 

to lightly hold what rests unsold. my passion's curse, this lonely verse I have rehearsed... till death my heart doth part.

oh come my love... come to me

come kiss this heart set free

Time After Time...



 

Lying in my bed, I hear the clock tick and think of you
Caught up in circles
Confusion is nothing new
Flashback, warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcase of memories
Time after
Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say, "go slow"
And I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after time
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows
You're wondering if I'm okay
Secrets stolen from deep inside (deep inside)
And the drum beats out of time
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost, you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall, I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
I've got a suitcase of memories that I almost left behind
Time after time
Time, time, time
But you say to go slow but I fall behind
Time after time after time (after time, oh)
~Iron and Wine
that's a promise...

Unsown - A Poem by Moe



at window sill he pressed his quill

to bleed upon his love

that she may feel her lovers kneel

with kisses from above


for kiss by night is kissed by knight

whose dawning soon appear

a loving way to better say

"im holding you from here"


so take his heart, here every part

and make it now thine own

that years may be but hours to thee

for love that lives unsown

Eres (You Are)...

 


English Translation

[Verse 1]

You Are

What I most want in this world, you are

You are also my deepest thought

Just tell me what I do, here I am

You Are

When I wake up, the first thing, that’s you

What my life needs if you don’t come

The only precious thing that lives in my mind today


[Chorus]

What else can I tell you?

Maybe I can lie to you for no reason

But what I feel today

It’s just that without you I’m dead, because you are

Oh, what I want most in this world, that’s you


[Post-Chorus]

Eh-eh, ah-ah


[Verse 2]

You Are

The time I share, that’s you

What people promise when they want

My salvation, my hope and my faith

Oh, I am

I am the one who loves you like no one else

I am the one who will support you day by day

Day that I would give my life for you, that’s who I am


[Chorus]

And oh, here I am by your side

And I wait here sitting, until the end

And you haven’t imagined

What I have waited for you

Well, you are, everything for me that I love in this world, that is you


[Outro]

Every minute I think about, that’s you

What I care most about in this world, that is you

And I wait here sitting until the end, until the end

I am the

The one who would take you, the one who would give

The one who would give his life for you, that’s who I am

What I love in this world, that’s you, oh, eh-eh
