What happened to this place and its people?
Such uncertainty
such misbelief
such "crisis".
Years back people in this country
were strong, dignified, brave
and days were filled with purpose.
When i look back at that i can truly say
life was a thing of beauty.
Once the people in this country
were worthy of the stars in the sky
and now we leave abroad with
whatever hope is left within our heart.
I always wanted a quiet life,living with dignity. Never wanted much and in
Greece we can't have even that. Apologies for the bitter tone.
Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2017
Afraid  to take chances, criticizing from a comfort zone,
so eager to protest for false ideas and all we ask is
how we've come to this unable to make a
transgression.
Chained to this fate falling to our dreams
it's insanity, a reality full of hypocrisy.
Dimitrios Sarris Nov 2016
Emotionals ups and downs
all spin and move in staggeringly transitions,
i'm still breathing.
Every now and then i miss her so much and
i don't know how the day breaks on me.
Every now and then i'm fine,
i'm still breathing.
Someone told me you won't get lost
if you follow the compass in your heart.
I take the wheel, fly up to a silver moon
and land upon the ashes of empty hollow trees.
Products of false imaginations,
shadows of nothing.
I'm still breathing.
Angels and demons fight,
standing in between and
i'm still breathing.
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.
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2017
I had this strange but comforting conversation with a friend.
Well strange of topic but comforting, knowing that there are
still people who give a **** and do not afraid the reality of
this world.
We concluded that there are not many moments just one,
one devastating moment with no second chances that you
won't recover.
One moment we must avoid, prevent and protect those
we love most. We fashion the course of our lives no one else, us...
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2017
I was driven by anger, desire, just aimed for what
i wanted not what i needed. That wasn't me, i couldn't
think and act by myself. Something dragged me down
to this flooding stream, no more.
Love for family, friends, the world, something to preserve.
A fight which gave me hope even if it takes time, lot of
time...
Dimitrios Sarris Sep 2016
I will find my way out of the rubble
no struggle.
My thoughts are settled
i am coming.
You're staying or hiding
but makes no difference.
Can you handle my voice,
can you handle my look?
This is my complete surrender
Love
Frustration
Melancholy
Loneliness
Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2018
Old maze
random quotes
rare flavor of
invalid dreams.
Troubled heart
twisted memory
altered mood
humor in calmness.
Could this ever
be heard in folly
loyal to a fault
no more.
Dimitrios Sarris Sep 2018
Heart woven from world's greatest thread
with passionate beat
a donor of love
a donor of kindness
a donor of strength
a titaness of life
which warm tears shine
of love even in gloom.
A goddess of compassion
a soul with passion.
My heart fills with gratitude
my soul fills with love.
Thank you!
Thank you for you might be the
best of us all.
If more people were like you
this world would be a merrier place.
Thank you.
Dimitrios Sarris Sep 2018
Our voices covered the silence of the night.
Just me and a beautiful woman talking
about our vivid lives. The road is getting
darker, the moonlight could shed little light.
She tightly grabbs my arm and kisses me with
her soft red lips. No words could be spoken as
i lose myself to the pleasures of her kiss.
I responded "I am not a man who mistreats
a lady for a night's satisfaction."
She replied "I know, i can feel it. But what would you
do for a woman in need. In need of your love,
of your caress, of your kiss?"
We drove our way back to my house.
Her beautiful green eyes could see within my heart
and her passionate kisses fill my lips and tongue.
I lose the sense of time as our warm breaths become
a cool breeze to our throbbing bodies.
She holds me tight as i lay her upon the soft sheets,
gently she kisses my neck and lets me slide down to fountains
of pumping milking beats, ******* her healing liquids like honey drops.  
Slowly i enter the altar of her lustful ventricles
becoming one as we press into silken gist
and break open as her skin brushes like silk.
She holds me tight with her angelic body as i permeate
deeper when oceans of liquid lava burst at the white sheets
of our bed and her breast ignites in slow movement
as we gasp and sigh the air around us.
She holds me tight to take in a river that will
quench her thirst, licking heavens milk that covered the secret
spaces that our kisses marked.    
She holds me till the sun rises to put an end to this salacious sin.
She holds my hand and crowls her way back to me. Back to my craving heart, back to our prurient desires.
A bold release of trapped emotions. We had to break up cause of our age
difference (she was older) and i just wanted to prevent her from getting hurt in the future.
Breaking up for something usual hurts but when you have to break up
cause the circumstances of life itself block us
is a different quality of pain. I know that is happy now...
Wishing happiness and joy to the troubled hearts
out there.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2017
There's a new voice singing
you can hear it if you try
i don't regret a single choice.
Thoughts mixed in clouds
of smoldering air
a couple of burning eyes i can't control
a heart heir to another's wrongs
a whisper of doom
a silver moon sings, does it mean my end?
I walk on scorched earth
like a shadow made from ash
in a dark black night.
I approach  crystal clear waters
to quench my thirst
i approach deep blue shores to sail far away
this time not alone.
Proceed and reignite
i promise i will not forget.
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
If you don't share someone's pain
you can never understand them.
But just because you understand them
doesn't mean you can come to an
agreement, for out of love sacrifice is born,
hate is born and we are able to know pain.
Build destroy repeat an endless cicle.
Is that what we want?
Is that what we are?
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

Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2017
I am losing you day by day but i don't regret choosing you
because i love you and that stands for me well.
Everyone i knew induced me to stop loving you, but how
could i forget you?
My mind forms pictures holding you in my arms
between shuffled sheets. I learned to love only you,
love those red lips like the colour of your favorite sour cherry.
Life might take a weird turn and cause us pain but at least
we've tried.
I tried for your own good and what i am doing is not because
i forget but because i can not stand the sight of your green
eyes crying. Our age difference would eventually become
an obstacle and i would not dare be that selfish, not to you.
I am doing this for my heart loves you and would not stand
the sound of this choir playing persistently.
I am doing this for you are the best and most sincere thing
that ever happened to me.
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
Rain falls because the clouds
can no longer handle the weight.
Tears fall because the heart
can no longer handle the pain.
Even the nicest people have
their limits.
No matter how strong they are
they too need someone to protect them.
No matter how happy they are
they too need someone to make them smile.
They who have been there for everyone
need someone to be there for them cause
their silence might be the most powerful scream.
Tired.
Dimitrios Sarris Jan 2017
It had nothing to do with her but it was something to be seen.
I could see it in her eyes, she had no idea, what could it be just fear.
Perhaps one or two shadows of suspicion, not sure.
All i could hear her saying " I wanted to run and hide in a place
where i could see my light again"
I am holding your hand we are reaching home, somewhere safe.
War is spreading in their hearts they can't just get enough.
It would be a blessing to stop and rest but this darkness spreads,
it spreads like a fire under a strong false wind.
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2017
This emotion, that feeling. How should i put it?
This "reality" looks like a parody of an old novel.
It's like another image with a fake smile seeking for attention,
it simply lacks of character. Conversation, physical contact
are more than any image could ever be.
Senses stimulate, thinking adjusts.
The sound or tone of a voice, the spark in a persons eyes are like
doorways of heart and soul. I tried to understand why people
use a fake image as shield and test each other behind a screen.
It feels like they are afraid. It feels like a fear coming from not knowing and avert their eyes from what they truly are.
But how can they survive without embracing their memories, their stories, everything they are connected to?
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2018
History and wise people teach and yet few learn
that false hopes are more dangerous than
rightful fears. So let the unseen days be.
Feeling grieved and bewildered,
who could judge at such hard times?
You have the values of a good man
"they told me", you will endure.
Sometimes the ending is the only escape
for there is beauty in breakdown
and life starts anew.
Why should i be afraid?
Dimitrios Sarris Nov 2017
Wake up!
Not from a dreamless sleep or the absence of light
but from a reality that will soon cease to exist.
Wake up!
Fill the blanks between words between worlds.
Wake up!
For greatness sometimes originates from the
confined of impossibility.
Wake up!
For destiny is not without irony.
Dimitrios Sarris Sep 2016
Time passes, matures
hurts and heals.
Time brings memories
and the orchestra
continues to play.

Time passes and asks
nobody.
Time repeats, teaches,
adapts and overcomes.

Times that binds us,
drives us, guide us.

Time brings happiness,
sadness, joy and pain.
All a matter of choice.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2016
They say the passage of time heals all wounds
but the greater the loss the deeper the cut and
the most difficult is the process to become whole
again.
The pain may fade but the scar surves as a
reminder of our suffering and make the bearer
all the more resolved never to be wounded
again.
So as time moves along we get lost in
distractions, act out in frustration,
react with aggression, give in to anger
and all for a while seems that we plan to
become stronger and before we know it the time
passes.
We are healed in a way but at the same time
the memory lurking in the shadows, strike
us again the moment we give in...
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2019
The first daughters of cosmos
queens and princesses of the world
and worlds to come.
Theia the wide shinning creator of light.
Rhea mother of the gods the eternal flow
mother of us all.
Themis the just one keeper of wisdom
counsellor of Cosmos.
Mnemosyne keeper of memory mother of
the nine Muses.
Phoebe the cold crowned, the prophet. All bright
she was as hope in mortals hearts.
Tethys the purifier the blessed water that nourishes
the earth from man's distortion.
Dimitrios Sarris Dec 2019
Cosmos was filled with beauty
darkness welcomed their light with weal
and so Uranides, Oceanides, Goddesses of old
took a place in the unending void
and sat to thrones made of starlight
giving place to children of their own.
Asteria daughter of Coeus and Phoebe. Goddess of
shooting stars and as one of them fell to the ocean
creating the island of Delos.
Leto sister of Asteria mother of Apollon and Artemis
motherhood and light were her gifts.
Hecate the witch the bearer of torches daughter of Asteria and Perses.
Eurybia master of the seas daughter of Pontus and Gaea herself.
Wife of Crius and mother of Astraeus, Perses and Pallas.
Eurynome the Oceanid a goddess of the sea, daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, mother of the three Charites of grace.
The one of those who nursed Hephestus.
Metis sister of Eurynome goddess of wisdom and deep thought,
mother of Athena, still bearing a child that could
overthrow Zeus himself.
Styx the third sister of Eurynome an Oceanid goddess of
the underworld river. Wife of Pallas and mother
to Zelus,Nike,Kratos and Bia.
Sorry i love mythology.
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2019
We all walk on the same earth Gaia
we all sail on the same sea Oceanus
see the same sky Uranos
the same sun Helios
the same moon Selene
and welcome everyday the beautiful dawn of Ios.
All held in the arms of the mighty Atlas.
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2019
The four pillars of the earth they were
before Atlas held the world in stir
most powerful but unknown they were.
To south stood the ram as a costellation
at the sky he appeared, Crius was his name.
To north stood an oracle with unceasing foresight
and wisdom, Coeus he was called.
To west stood the spear, the craftsman. Life and death
he wielded, Iapetus the piercer he was called.
To east stood the light, the first light, the one above all,
the father of sun, moon and dawn. The mighty Hyperion
that none dared to cross.
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2018
Within and without
can you hear it now?
it's been with doupt
can you see it now?
A mortal sin gods will bear out
a soul akin angels won't look out.
I'll let you see what was cast aside
i'll let you feel powerless when waves collide
i'll let you feel mortal in high tide.
Dimitrios Sarris May 2018
Grief had grown
ever worsening
robbed you of all joy.
Heart in dust
mind in ******
all you needed was trust
go ahead if you must.
You did not want to forget
and amid of all that bliss
dark seed of evil was sown.
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2016
Fight for those you love even if your inside
breaks into pieces.
Fight even if your heart does not
command it.
Fight for the woman your love surrounds and
stay with her even if it kills you.
Love is like a wild flower.
It grows where is at least expected
and appears with different colour and shape
to each one of us.
Love can survive under really difficult circumstances but
will die if it's placed in a cage.
Love is when you're happy with her joy,
when you always care of how she feels,
what she wants,
what she afraid of,
what she dreams of.
Every single moment...
Dimitrios Sarris Jan 2017
Mind and heart force us to believe in
something that might not exist,
creating illusions that separate us
from hope, maybe true happiness.
Our spirit though, our instincts
know otherwise.
Thoughts an memories merging
giving an opportunity to face the truth.
We can not simply put faith in lies even
if we wanted to believe in them.
A perfect place in our minds out of reach
one impervious wall that surrounds us.
It's time to find answers in ourselves
stop being blind and live.
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.
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2018
Primevally related and akin
primevally different has been
mortal land of old heroic deeds.

Concerning the good, wise and beautiful
preserving the joy, love and passion.

A small glimpse of what it was
this place of significant motive
in history and legend.

As the song may declare
only the gods know where we run.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2016
Like a beautiful bird landing to your garden
with rare sound smoothing the air,
songs and dance given only to you.
It feeds only from your hand, you are happy for it,
you enjoy the sight and sound of it.
You love it but if you truly care about it let it go,
let it fly back, for the journey was long and home
will be missed.
Dimitrios Sarris Mar 2018
My heart seemed to say
a sound of distant wind
you have stolen my love again
warmth seemed to rise with fain
and so i've met my bane.
I touched your hands in caution
passion did rise among the endless silence
i traveled your feelings of compassion.
Thus i counselled my reason
to find the outcome of impetuous pathos
that is what existed even before gods
an unending chaos.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2017
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.
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2017
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...
Dimitrios Sarris May 2018
Some things just are.
There was a time i would
try more but...
Sometimes life is unfair
sometimes we lose things
sometimes we make mistakes
sometimes we fight and nothing
can be fixed.
Some things just are...
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2018
The world turns away in horror.
As broken things, unloved they appeared
with blood on their crown the lonely night
uncovered them.
It's deep in their blood
it's deep in their bones
change is deep inside them
that light makes them look exceptional.
Drifting down to another side
relentless they survived.
Hope, love and fate they were named
and none could ever get how perfect
they were when they bloomed in
starlight skies.
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2017
Love truly, utterly, unconditionally...
Let it end if that's the best for her, let her go
as far she can withstand.
Let her fly into stormy winds and sail into restless seas.
If she loves you truly she will return and meet at
the well known port.
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2017
The tourist, a person who does vacations in other people's lives,
take some photos puts them in an album and moves on.
All he/she is interested in is stories, in other words a selfish  egocentric person treating people like whisky snacks.
Inspired by recent events of a friend. She is one of the most loving and kind people someone could ever meet and was treated selfishly and unfairly.
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
Living our lives bound by what we see
as right and true. That's what we call reality.
Well right and true are vague terms and our
reality could turn out to be an illusion.
After all we live by our own assumptions.
Dimitrios Sarris May 2017
I wonder if humans are made to live happy,
for happiness lasts so little. Why are we so
incapable of preserving the wonders that arise of it.
I thought that the only thing i could do was to accept
the outcome of it with composure but it wasn't enough.
I can understand now happiness is not a grant of permission
through life but also a warning. To value more life
and contribute to great but also to small acts of courage
and kindness.
Dimitrios Sarris Dec 2017
Seeing you today after so long
might hurt, make me feel like a rag
but i can't explain the joy i feel at
the end of this day just to be a little tired.
Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2017
If life itself turns everything you gained into something
to look for then i think two choices remain to be made.
Mourn for what you are about to lose or fight and make it
yours again, make it clear.
Then again there are those who think that choice is an
illusion in this muddy world for life makes us face difficult
situations with insurmountable variables.
Well i believe that choice is not something to be underestimated
and the real request here is why we give up so easily when we
come in touch with the weird and problematic nature of
knowledge.
Dimitrios Sarris Sep 2017
The pain was at ease and for a time i had
stillness within, but it was not to be for long.
As shady thoughts linger in my head again
my heart reaches the apogee of loneliness,
my chest stretches.
I can not forget nore i can allow such thoughts
to overwhelm me, so i locked them up.
I hid them even from those i love most,
for they deserve only joy and happiness
not the grouchiness of a troubled soul.
Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2017
Souls remain hollow and all know the reason,
as a lie appears like a theatrical scene without  
scenario and nothing to teach
like a painting without color and a single black tone
like a ship without  tack and an attitude latent and contradictory
remaining humble but ready to conquer  a world
would we dare preach a way so that truth might come along
and as someone said so many years before
“too much haste is too little speed”.
There is nothing more I can do but fill pages with ink
as everything old and good that remains slowly dies
at the needs of a  blind modern society i shall keep
moving though motions like an image from an old dream.
“too much haste is too little speed” Plato
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
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.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2017
That which heart defines
don't let go.
That which heart dictates
try to let go.
It's unfair and sore
to hold what's repressed.
It's insane and bold to burden the chest
which holds my heart's abyss.
I could never ask more from a soul
which always asked forgiveness.
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
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.
Dimitrios Sarris Jan 2017
Mountains as an ark
stars in the dark
a calm heart cries.
I can hear you slinkingly
i start the counting again
my fire smolders in the cold
an old mast to hold.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2017
You were my life, my breath,
my thought, my whole existence
every time i looked your way
my soul filled with love
of all the hardships i came by
the hardest was that you're gone.
