(In The Name Of Love) Sacrifices From The Heart

Sins of an angel can only be seen

In the dead of the night when the witching hour strikes.

If you want to see her imperfection

You better look real quick

Cause one the twelfth chimes fades out

Her transgressions are eclipsed by the moons devotion.

His reflection her addiction,

Her soul his twisted mate…

Though heaven and space are looked up to

They are worlds very far apart.

So she will float aimlessly for eternity

All in the name of unearthly desires

While he lights up her face with his lunar chivalry

Hoping to keep his heavenly obsession satisfied,

Even if that means being damned when the sun rises.

Classic Cowboy writing here. It's the stuff I fell in love with.
Awesome romantic poem.

Thanks so much Ana, I am a hopeless romantic by nature.

Good way to be!

Even an angel can fall - and who wouldn't love such an angel..."when he lights up her face with his lunar chivalry" - such a great line.
Your talent shines in this gorgeous poem.

i would love a fallen angel....we all have our faults...it is forgiveness and love that is important...despite our shortcomings...chivalry should not die.
and when we are addicted to someone, we overlook anyway.

i like all the links and contradictions in this...

Very well said Jacob, thank you for sharing your thoughts.

To love is to sacrifice, to care is to give yourself
Because when you love, you should learn to help
You have to hear your partner's feeling and not just your own call
You won't leave him/her alone when the raindrops fall
And all the negatives will melt down like snow
When you walk hand in hand wherever you go.

A little confusng. It sound as if you are writing about the moon--that's what I get from the third line from the end.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Well poetry is open to interpretation, so what ever you take from it is right. No matter what I intended.
