Love is a melody without word
Music with discovery heard
Rhythm to a heart's accord
Percussion to a mundane world
A song written with beauty in rhyme
A song sung with test of time
Paul Lost Apr 2016
My restless mind beckons your call
A falling domino setting water through stone
A chain reaction calling the heart to ease
A mindful armor anxiously waiting to please

My mind beats my singing heart
Tumbling logic
Emotionless motioned life
Robotic poetry remains mechanic lies
A bloodless heart can't love

But your words give my heart a call
A tune for a story told
A breath without flatline drawn
A mystery to a mindless fall

Can my restless mind let my heart so sing
Could a song be worth the fear it brings
Do not consider the end at all
Might a moment be enjoyed for all

Restless mind beckons at your call
A falling domino setting water through stone
A chain reaction calling the heart to ease
A mindful armor anxiously waiting to please

My mind beats my singing heart
Tumbling logic
Emotionless motioned life
Robotic poetry remains mechanic lies
A bloodless heart can't love

But your words give my heart a call
A tune for a story told
A breath where life's waiting and bold
A mystery of a potential mindless fall

Can my restless mind let my heart so sing
Might there be a song worth the fear you bring
Might a chance be without considerations grow
Might a moment be enjoyed for all

Sometimes I long for the days when we made music
It was not just heard, but seen and it was great
I guess that as time heals what can be broken
It can also expose cracks in foundations never made

We never lived in times where we were present
'Cause the next day and month and year won't forsake
I guess we never noticed we stopped recording
Reciting old songs to audiences that were in wait

We dreamt up castles for the future
We lived by streams where water quenched our souls
I guess as times brought droughts we never noticed
The music silenced waterfalls of thunder as we broke

But I don't regret the songs that we made perfect
The cascading rumble of our dancing dreams in wake
I guess the pressure of albums never written
Doesn't make me forget the music that we made

Attraction pulls me closer
Your flickering flame is art
Promise drew emotion
A moth to a burning start

Cursed in the ending
Sang songs of a crying heart
No promise to be broken
Burning moth, without a start

Rhythmed hearts change with time
Molded souls no longer twine
Everything ends
Paid for our crimes

Let me go
let me be
Let hearts grow again kind
It is time to let go
Let space allow me to find

Cruelty grows
although it is fine
Mosaic of dreams
You're no longer mine

Let me go
let me be
Let me grow without bind
It is time to let go
Stop bungling my mind

Lifted shoulders reveal
Worlds filled with shine
Break free from this burden
Let the stars aline

Let me go
let me be
Let emotions unwind
It is time to let go
Tears leave you blind

Let you go, to let you be
Gave words that were kind
It was time to let go
Buried memories behind
