Vigil
Dimitrios Sarris Nov 2017
There are tears of joy
and laughing with sore
and logic that man
in madness is carried
swiftly.
May you never see your
life in longing
all i wish is true
may you flourish
and in silver shores
find happiness once again.

From old to new
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2021
Universal and timeless is the sound.
Cosmic and unending are the songs of past.
Truth and destiny
myths and folklore of primal time
tail and story of ancient gaze.
Old ways and thoughts
traditions and tools
in so many ways still echo to our hearts
still carry the relevance in our thoughts
to create something new.
That is the purpose
that is the challenge.
Copy the past is not difficult
but taking the old and learn
embracing the old and turn it to something new
accepting the old and give meaning today
that is the saga of the Gods.

Strange beat
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2017
In this endless journey of yours seeking  for  redemption,
what do you see? Look inside you what do you reach?
Are your actions guided by fear? Strengthen by vengeance?
Your walls around you hardened like steel,  
blinded by haste in a desperate struggle,
struggle of counteraction but not for change.
More or less the same. Questioning yourself, why again?
What else could it be but a will of shimmering light.
Look deeper what do you see?
A choice must be made to whatever you reach
There is no withdraw in this tango of life
for the rhythm is precise without a drop.

Silent
Dimitrios Sarris Nov 2016
When all is left is you and me
we were invincible in a red sea.
Now we are apart
how could i fly with no wings,
how could i live with no dreams,
when there's no place to call our own.
I need a big reduction in amount of tears,
i feel that i should be heard loud out clear.
You never really died in my heart...

The Elfin Knight
Dimitrios Sarris Feb 2020
Oh warrior of old
Oh knight of ancient oath
Oh folk of old with blade utter
Oh soul with armour shattered

Brave against the odds
Valiant for kin and folk
Gallant with conviction and sacrifice
Fearless in death's embrace

Oh warriors of old now gone
Oh gods of old so long forgotten
Oh mortal folk so unwilling
Oh humans of despite
Oh world of burning greed

The worse thing from
been deceived
is getting used to it.
Their shadows and wiffs
are all the same.
Their minds and thoughts
are all insane.
Love and repsect far
from their gain.
My heart and soul
in great pain.
Friends and loved ones
in beautiful frame.
My spirit well
retains.

Darkness the unknown
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2019
It s not the darkness that makes freeze from fear
it s something old and powerful, notion long forgotten,
Erebus or Nyx it is ?
No feels something out of time and place, undimensioned
the old ones are here that s why i quiver in fear.

Trust
Dimitrios Sarris Dec 2016
Trust is a powerful thing, you have no idea what it may bring.
It can sting your heart and tear your soul apart, or it can warm
your spirit and give you hope. Honesty, clarity, directness.
A yes is very clear and don't mind the no's. Things in between confuse and cause us pain. Life's simple, you make choices and you don't look back.

Libératemé
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2017
When my untold sacrifices are never valued despite they've
been seen and my told sacrifices are never believed.
When i inspire and encourage someone
give love, share dreams, dare to follow.
When all sense of selflessness pick a top,
soul, heart, mind liberated.
Unafraid to go where life leads and somehow
i know i'll be strong, i won't let sorrow hurt me.
For once my emotions won't be hammered but
embraced where i am not alone.
When they catch me if i fall, my wings shall heal,
i am liberated.

When most humans are truly and utterly scared
they don't give a **** about anyone else.
They just blame everyone but themselves.
In most cases someone else is wrong, the humanity,
the society, the world around them.
What kind of world do we live in?
I don't know the answer, i never did.
I just believed in virtues, to people i love,
to wondering souls with a thorn in their heart.

On Monday i leave for my military service
and i will not be able to read or write at HP
for long time. Maybe read though my mobile
phone. Just wanted to thank all those who follow
me at HP and read my poetry firmly. Did not
want them to think that i am ignoring them.
Thanks all of you for the likes and sweet comments
looking forward to read more of your poems when
i return. Wishing lot of inspiration.

Change of heart
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2021
A life of less behind
a demand of love bursts inside
i write words and songs of mourn
i provoke my heart, our souls in yearn
with poetry i cast this sorrow aside
every whiff of yours gives me life
your voice and music make me fragile
questions make this mind agile.
I don't know how should I put it into words
I can’t express it in this world
I stand where none will ever dare...

You were my life, my breath,

of all the hardships i came by
the hardest was that you're gone.

Seeing you today after so long

Reality
Dimitrios Sarris May 2017
A world made of glass. Each one of us lives hidden in his own
little world made of glass. The problem with glass is that no matter how
wary we are it breaks easily.
We're like souls made of glass which we entrust in the hands of others.
Will they be watchful?
Giving a battle in this world with one little precious and fragile piece of glass which breaks by the time leaves us wounds. Glass does not hang back and the old cracks still exist.
It will only acquire its primary form if it's heated in the proper temperature.
I wonder, is there anyone in this world who could do that?

No roots vol.6
Dimitrios Sarris Dec 2017
I was concerned rightly so
cause hate hangs on
and sorrow is all you had
could bring you back there
back to  wrong choices.
Lo the frailty of your soul.
Lo the thirst of your heart.
Lo the fabric of your broken
reality.
As your mind and heart vie
for control listen to the melody
that once nourished your sight,
listen for your soul deminishes
in depths that none could reach.

Your answer
Dimitrios Sarris May 2017
You asked me once
"What defines a man?"
I simply answered
"His words, his actions,
his relationships not only of the
present but of the past too."
What you did not understand
was the time i refered to.
Best of luck, i wish.

In my eyes she is
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2021
Sparkly eyes like a starry night  sweet like a summer's first sunrise.
She smiles and the sun shines brighter she laughs and the wind sings of mirth.
Her hug speaks no language but only matters and means the world's rejoice.
I almost gave up but her company makes
my chest feel lighter and now i want to try more.
My efforts filled with meaning of happiness and hope i write.
I stand stronger now and my humble embrace will always be given free for her delight.
Gratitude, like a vast ocean overwhelms my heart and sorrow slowly shunts aside.
I will always be there to take her fears.
I will always be there to comfort her tears.
to hear her dreams in wonder.
I will always be there for her to rest her thoughts.
I will always be there for her to lie her soul whose
beauty is that of an angel.
I will always be there in case she forgets
how amazing human being she is.
If my love was time i would give her eternity.
My humble love and care always hers.

I don't know what makes us love so much,
i don't know what makes us feel what we feel.
Whatever it is, it hurts so much that
i'd wish to never feel love again
i'd wish to keep only the happy moments
so that i wouldn't feel sad again, shed a tear or two.
Then again there is something that makes me want to
relive the good and the bad in equal measure
and that is you...

So many times i've heard that moving on doesn't mean
you forget about things but you accept what's happened
and continue living. From one side of the coin it feels
normal and healthy to do so but from the other side it
feels like containment to a secret agreement with ourselves
that allow us only to believe that we won't regret the choices
we made. Nontheless i gain some relief remembering
what my greatest love once told me.
"If you can think of beautiful goal in your life, a happy
ending, then live beautifully until that end."
I guess as long as i have life in me i will fight with all my
might to that end and if i fail at least i'll say i tried.

Dreams visions of our memories, thoughts, fears
as seen by our heart. What if we are always dreaming,
even if we are awake and we are able to see only a portion
of reality. Is this what life is? Maybe we are afraid to see
the world for what it really is. Better worse it doesn't matter,
it would be real. In this hard graveling earth illusion takes hold
and spreads like a disease, but at that same earth i got to know
true love and friendship. I got to know the good, the bad, the worse
and all were real.

Mountains as an ark

I see vol.4
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
Greatest lessons in life are learned through pain.
Hurt in order to know
fall in order to grow
lose in order to gain
but love and caring should not be forced out of
hectic situations.
Some things such as love and morals lose their
meaning if people support those ideals because
of a traumatic outcome.
Love, caring, morals should be considered standard
not a worthless compulsion that enslaves us.
People should cultivate upon those old yet newly
known to some ethics.
Disheartening that most lose sight of what's most
important and change becomes impossible in this fog
of ignorance.

Loyal to a fault
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2021
I remember, i know this place so well
the very spot we used to watch the sunset
hear the waves crushing to this little port.
Now it lingers in my mind like an image
from an old dream and i discover
a strange truth. That i start to forget
your face, your voice and i'm frightened.
Before i meet you i had emotions i could not see
i had time i could not fill
and i had love i could not feel.
Now i realise the void inside my heart,
endless affection my love.
In time i could see the world as you did,
a place full of music and joy.
Now i hold only a fragment of it
and i try to move on, feeling cold
I...

Cernunos the forgotten god
the misjudged, the demonized one by younger folk,
naive folk that sunk in prejudices.  
Cernunos, called the cursed one from that very same folk
that forgot nature.

Here is the voice of the God

I am the hunter in the wild, the horned one,the healer,
protector of nature and master of the sun.
I am balance.

My grief is broken
your soul burned
but not forgotten
their lies could not burn your truth
their acts could not drown your spirit.
You always had the courage to thank
only those who deserved it
even if your time burned away.
One burning heart the light you
cast on their shadows and reveal
their loneliness and rust
Now i see they're alone
with such their heart is rotten.
I thank you...

Seeking
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2020
In the end everyone dies
and so the Gods envy us.
They envy us cause we're mortal
because any moment could be our last and
everything is more beautiful because we're doomed.
This doom is our freedom.
This doom is what Gods seek.

— The End —
