This is normal behaviour for a PC that has gone to 'Sleep'. If it is a Desktop, best to shutdown properly before removing AC power. 'Sleep' uses RAM to store data for a fast resume, and this data will be lost when you remove power on a desktop, but would be maintained if on a Laptop as long as the battery lasts...

i just want to make sure is it safe to completely cut the power off from my Desktop in this case ?
and is there any damage if i start and turn on my PC from keyboard ?
and what differences between turn on from the normal power button and the keyboard ?
And which way should i use for turning on my Desktop from the normal power button or from the keyboard ?

No difference when you turn on, the Power On Sequence will be the same by either method. There are several ways of turning off your PC with Windows 8. The 'normal ' way is by using the Charms Menu, this will utilise the 'Fast boot'. 2nd method is to use the windows Key plus 'X' Menu which bypasses fast boot, 3rd method is the 'Hard Power Off' by holding down the Power button for 5 seconds, also bypasses fast boot. Then you can restart your PC in Troubleshooting mode by holding down the Shift Key and selecting Restart from the Charms Menu, useful to get into Safe Mode for whatever reason...

My BIOS has a wake from mouse double-click, wake from usb, and wake from keyboard. If you don;t like it I would go into BIOS settings and look for those things.
