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.
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2017
Wounds might start to heal but emotions only fester.
I could hide at this state and forget, but were all efforts in vain?
A gain for someone else?
I don't believe in fate but something strange brought me here.
Perhaps it's time to let go of the past, i take one last look down
at my old self and turn away from the void growing within.
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 Nov 2017
There was a time when mannners mattered,
there was a time that principles mattered.
When did all become so relative?
When did we begin to hover in the dark?
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
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.
Dimitrios Sarris May 2017
Your soul center of my world, a place to be avoided
by some for they are so afraid to face the truth,
but a place of beauty and hope for me.
Two different people cursed in one moment, we
found our ways to make it work.
With every ****** of my words i'll cut their poisonous
tongues, reveal that their truth is only but a lie.
I'll show you what life is and make their dream look like
a nightmare.
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2017
Such vanity they must have suffered
great fear of mortality of growing up
without reason and meaning
for they didn't celebrate the art of
creation whether they were pleased
with the actuall work itself or not.
A man who cares for art only when
he's pleased by it is man who is dead inside
and to the world that he is surrounded.

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.

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.

The man who tries to escape
what he fears the most
can only discover that he took
a shortcut straight to it.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2021
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 or worse it doesn't matter,
it would be real. In this hard gravelling 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 Sep 2017
My loneliness i loved
not because i liked it
but there i found none
that could hurt me.
My love is like a ship
when the tempest begins
the only refuge can be
found is the port that
answers in her name.
My eyes harsh like
a wooden bark
but my heart like a rasp
with patience and time
makes this soul
slick and soft
ready to fall again
in her ardent kiss.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2016
To truly awaken is to see
the evil that surrounds you.
If you can not understand
and remove the evil within
then trapped you shall remain.
It saddens my heart to see the
pain and suffering you inflicted.
Now you can not return home
where shadows do not exist.
Sacrificed my all for truth to
reach out.
Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2018
A question carries me, scorching shores
in a blazing trail.
A question vexes me and provokes my
interest.
How do we come to know the unknownable?
Should our faculties prove enough or should we
push ourselves to venture further and further?
Into the deep unknown we travel
where a flicker of wild eyes lurk.
Should the story terrify me,
would my thought comfort me?
In moonlight's shadow the tale begins
on shores of gold my tale will end.
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.

Lagertha the shield maiden
Lagertha the ice maiden
Lagertha who flies with the Valkyries
Lagertha who now lies with Ragna once more
Fair well
Dimitrios Sarris May 2017
Our command of feelings in this world is magnificent.
The ability to transform our darkness, our pain into
rear newfound beauty.
Pain is easy to express but to use our passion to express
the pain or joy of our little world is something which
surely exceeds the grey around.
We've seen a lot, stood between black and white and
maybe we are not able to tell if what we feel is
pleasure or pain.
Love, hate.
Bliss, abyss.
Heroes rise and legends are born to die...
Dimitrios Sarris Jun 2021
I thought that there was no greater virtue than
fighting for truth.
I thought that by believing the right ideals,
οthers would do the right thing too.
They did i suppose what was right by them.
Shadow fell and light was forced to run
whatever’s left screamed and won.
Justice or survival?
A devil's deal.
Our hearts might not be looking for war
but war is looking for us.
If it finds me what could i surrender in return?
My sanity?
My hope?
My love?
No matter the outcome it's not the end
but a new beginning
for i never lost my way.
Dimitrios Sarris Aug 2017
The origins of life, an absolute mystery.
Where and why?
All set and carved with ambition.
We could be messengers, preservers
but we are connected to conflict and destruction.
It is so enchanting to act like gods,
a staggeringly ambitious vision.
So many things could be so wrong,
so many unknowns.
What was it all for?
Knowledge?
Power?
Or just to show what was possible?
Ambtion, stubborness
nothing changed.
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2017
It's getting cold
it's pouring with rain
your own light
inside your heart.
For every breath
feeling lungs with cold black wind
a wolf stares sniffs and howls.
In every heartbeat
a soul's vast
a lion's roar
  its dark brown eyes
the color of a cloak.
It's getting warmer
south wind whiff's
it's your own breath
inside my chest.
Dimitrios Sarris Nov 2017
I don't know why today of all days
i was thinking about you.
I don't know why today of all days...
I might have tried less of forgetting you today.
Even if it's been so long
i still miss you
i still love you.
By no means was this love
for the faint at heart
by no means was this life
for the weak and the lazy.
I'll think of you
when i start to lose faith.
I'll think of you
when the mist goes thick.
I'll think of you
when the lament of my lost hope
takes hold in this tilted heart.
I'll think of you
as i sing the light melodies of poems
that echo between the foaming waves.
I'll think of you
as i remember your green eyes reflecting
such starlight...
So be it.
Dimitrios Sarris Oct 2016
Dreams we've made, things we did to crack
the daily routine and melancholy, slowly fade away.
I believed that things would turn out differently but
all that remains are illusions...
My mind surrounded by iron bars slowly transforming into
a golden cage of a weird fantasy.
It feels safe but I sence the danger of living trapped.
Shadows and illusions whispering, consuming.
But if there is darkness there is light too.
I choose light.
We are the choices and the priorities we make
and character forms out of how we deal with tragedy.
Pick a side…
Dimitrios Sarris Jul 2016
One of the greatest moments of our lives.
Patiently maturing our hearts for a beautiful cause and victorious
fall to the field of battle.
But patience easily gives in rage. It begins with a drop,
a single drop. Soon it becomes a river where anger is born
and from this fury rises a raging flood.
The tide wave changes and if anyone stands against
that tide, will drown...
All result of an unchecked wrath in prison within,
for this unjust and unfair world, where whatever is
good and true now watches like a ghost from beyond.
Waiting, faiding, forgetting, no rage just emptiness...
Dimitrios Sarris Sep 2017
So tired of this...
Are we so immature with such mistimed attitude?
Poeple knowing they choose the wrong person to be with,
complain with such query " Why he/she cheated?"
People being so selfish caring only for themselves,
complain with query " Why am i alone?"
People protest for multi genderism, for being vegans
or to whatever the modern society applies with
and all they do is ask with query
"Why there is poverty and unemployment?"
"Why there is war and discord?"
Well i ask why can't we see the truth?
Why can't we see through all those blinding mirrors?
Why we believe to whatever narcissistic crap appears
in front of us?
Dimitrios Sarris Feb 2017
I wish i hadn't heard nor witnessed such stories,
so painful in so many ways.
Few are mine and other by people so wounded
from betrayal  and lies yet their hope is not lost.
With sadness in their voice and fear in their eyes
they stand.
With gracious heart they believe it's another chapter
to a never ending story and so did i.
Surely a happy ending depends where you stop
telling a story and that might be something to give
hope but also might bring destruction.
Reality does not compromise with reckless dreams
nor to petty excuses, i know that now.
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.
Dimitrios Sarris Apr 2017
Set everything in motion
set everything right.
Move on knowing that
you are the architect of your life
even of your death but do not fall
prey to dark thoughts of retribution,
that way madness lies.
That's how all went down?
You thought you found true peace.
How could that be when you still
carry all those burdens from the past?
Mystery, silence, doubt. That was your
mix, not your world. You always equated
facts with excuses, not feelings for it was
something getting in your way and never
understood that a fact is a not a way of
seeing things but what you see.
Why not retire from your standarts, just get out
of your head even for a little bit?
Dimitrios Sarris Jan 2019
Haunted by grief of loss
as a soul trapped
inside a broken mirror
that tried desperately to scream
and beg solely through the tears
that slid down a darken face
cold and very much alone.

Now tell me i am wrong
now listen to the steel sing
let courage and fury fill your heart.
Kicked to the floor
now rise anew.
Alas for victory is here
alas for the gods return.
Remember for the scars run deep
remember for the scars may never heal.
Now rise at the sound of the horn
and gods demand revenge.
Zagreus son of Hades and Persephone.
A small draft from the book i write.
Dimitrios Sarris Jan 2018
Let your pretentious desires away
taste a glimpse of what must be done
let your life change and control your fate
for waves strike the rock hard and chasten it
but do not break it in shivers only chisel.

— The End —
