Innocent eweA Poem by Willem DelFuegoI wrote this very suddenly, it has been through several edits though. It's about pure love, loss of purity, and the reality of death.
Innocent Love
I am the biggest fool Not the greatest Because of my mistakes Enough to be visible From your space - A Fool A fool who knows a truth Another won't commit He speaks to her in dreams He speaks to her Whispers, cool air Coolness you held at night A fool that owns a gravity Unique to himself Now pulls on his night He pulls on his moon She slowly drifts I pull a frozen heart This fool will speak now Pull upon your curls He will kiss you softly Softly fool, don't push This fool you love Runs at the first sound She blushes, she runs You can not chase While you were sleeping While you slept She cut you through Now leaving your soul I speak my love, my fool Knowing you have no air You listen in vacuum Sounds cannot reach you Echo, you echo your own You take a turn You turned this heart Your moon shifts it weight My ocean devours our shore On the shore I lay on sand before you My queen, innocent star Your light gave life to cold On this far lifeless shore Where your name began Highlands and lowlands Are only named so For they are married One is not one Without his bride I rise, I fall I fell once , you loved I fell twice Now your winter has come My oceans crashed For a while my home shook I felt your absence, colder I regretted this ever Ever regret my sins You ran away innocent Your innocence a knife Maybe you had as a child You used it for supper You forgave not your meal Devour me love, take mine I would never ask My arms have crashed Catching breathless air Suffering fool, you ghost Suffering fool you build Castles on your moon You lock your doors Lock them tight So your treasures remain You sleep outside Afraid you will loose Although it's a truth You demand it proclaimed Loose what you have So all you will hope gains But now, nothing is sacred Together a miracle We had one winter ago She shook so slowly Our bottle together Warm filled with love Laughter and praying Praying at night you sleep I sleep my sleep in prayer Awake at the thresher Our miracle shook Her body so thin We lay in waiting We, waiting in strength for I hoped for our destined home Your dreams now small though We married in summer Wearing poppers threads Our pockets were vacuum Listen to our empty space Hope to fill our home with bread We stand behind the glass All our ladies red in waiting And brothers, mothers weep Weeping together at last Now driving in rain You comfort my heart I speak of our miracle soon Now the home was filled Though poorly seen You saw emptiness Never seeing what will be Running away, afraid dear You stood there, no more Your wealth a violent ache It takes your at will Your peace plundered You care for peace no more You gasp for air Always drifter, always snow We spoke in no time No memory shared We spoke, but you died You swallowed your love A sword in Mayweather Fair I watched from the crowd Naked I stood, your lips I see you lips move But not for your dreams The sword you swallow Made from you crown A man who was in town Handing your glory in coal Off to a traveling donkey He melted it down Now there are words there Seeing them written You watching it gladly This dream was so real You lost in your dreams Your dreams swallow you Fool man, I am foolish To argue your passing While all insist you live You are living In your mother's womb And quite happy to be so So now, my fool My foolish heart chases I run after your ghost Altogether I arrive in places Towns, cities I did not know Hear songs of the dying star You forgot who you are I will not relent, such a fool I follow you from afar My drifting moon My oceans so violent So violent and fierce My shore washes away Our home, our fortress You drift away dusted hair Now once the cities I saw Sang songs of a hope And of a hopeful prince Your face toward my sky Turning away, and slowly Lowly I pray dear, godspeed Our miracle woke And shook no longer She was the small echo She echoes of blindness Of turning moon And frozen maiden I speak for the miraculous For you have not known After moon dripped honey Trust you drifting I know in time you freeze And in ice, you will regret So here now the final ire The end of our song You left greatness behind Choosing darkness you fall But I love you always I chase as foolish lover I say I am a bigger fool Though not in any way Small man I am proud Too proud to see My foolishness was more More foolish in Faith And you have run from life Your hopeful release now Will linger on your necklace You swore my arms held Yours arms in mine together On our dying day as one You swore your neck to hold A slender strand of hope Easily broken, throat closing It will always remain What we were to see Yet I saw alone, your dream Your dream something far An exile from nature No, limbs regrow in ether I see arms and legs Where ether was only air No longer as you, oh moon You on our day, rain for us Ran down a valley dusted Through your hair, pearls Dusted valley in your hair All these bones, now speak Vows broken like old men Your scented skin lovely Once gentle - love touching Now love , you hold bones Sharpened on stones You always had me carry On days we were as harlots Refuse to speak, you hold it Not letting go, you won't Your weightless dream Stand this test fool you are I say to thumping veins Lead to nameless motion I say not your name bird Not my time keeping flight No, in that chest only sound I can not speak, my love My pure, your name again Not while chest held hollow You were that weight Of treasures we were given No, they can't replace How sorrowful to see A star grow cold, die out Until only frozen satellite Only dim light now Though I love your night I tremble nude in dimness At night, in the sky Glow from your waste Closest I feel you dear again Now this fool chokes On his words agonizing I love my dear drifter I watch as slowly are erased Our letters written in song Are erased from your skin I dread this day dear moon Not for my own home Sunken under waves guilt I dread not this stolen gold Nor my empty cupboard But you filled my cup ever If heard what you did In fear, your empty chair The shores gone all as well I dread to tell you star You left in fear But will not soon know I hide from you moon Tattoo foreign words on me That your dreams are real You left them But I hope for you I hope you awaken And see what is lost Weap a moment Rejoice forever All hope is not an orphan Lost no longer follow , love Your moon will find a light A sun will bring you fire Bring you burning deeper Your name is in the sun My star- I love you still, I will never tell you what you left. It would crush you more than I did. I will never tell you this, but I will only say here that I hope you will find your sun, after drifting frozen in time. © 2015 Willem DelFuegoAuthor's Note
