Summer melodies

I remember the summer nights

We were sitting by the sea

Lying on the sand

With the shore's waves covering out feet

While we were looking at the stars

And we were dreaming 

Dreaming to free

Young,

And in love

And when we returned at home

Open windows 

While the cool summer breeze was blowing in

And in the room flowed the scent of ocean

But we couldn't feel it

We were burning 

Under the white sheets...

Vrady

Twra einai vrady 
Ageras fysa 
Mia skepsh perna

Fallen Angel

The first day,
God borrowed a little light from the sun
He promised to return it
But He forgot Himself  'cause it looked too good in your eyes

The second day,
He stole the greatest holiness from all the Saints' spirit 
And in the middle of the night,
He tucked it into your soul, so silently that you couldn't hear it

The third day,
It was time for the words to come out of the eternal Abyss
That's why He decided to gather all the divine wisdom 
And let you know the secrets of the Skies

The fourth day,
He got a little fire from my candle and lit up your wit
So divine and so bright, that wherever you went
it was enough to light up the whole world 

The fifth day,
So proud of who you already were
He cut off the biggest Angel's wings 
And with a father's smile on His face
He placed them to your shoulders so you could fly away

The sixth day,
He pulled out a tiny piece of the purity of His soul
And hid it in your immense heart
This way, you had the courage of a god, 
But sent you to a mortal world, so that would keep you humble

The seventh day,
You could already see things that mortals couldn't think of
They burnt your wings and tore your heart
You were a Fallen Angel, but instead of Hell, 
you fell onto the Earth

Sailor - One Last Trip

One last trip
Into the moon of your soul

With my last-made ship
Washed up on some shore

Calmly sailing in
Rowing standing on the bow

And from the line where the sky meets the sea
The horizon takes me and I don't even know where I go

All alone in the middle of the ocean again
The moon spilling it's magic potion to ease my pain

But my homecoming still remains the same...

There are no shadows or monsters to make me feel afraid
Take off of me this chain

'Cause I've been sailing around the whole world 
Goddesses dragged me to their beds but I remained blurred

Beautiful places where they thought I would stay
But you're the only thought that never fades away

I've been trying to forgive and forget 
But I've never really tried to control my rage

And I was sailing calm
Chatting with God

One of the million waves that pass by
Strikes my boat

Sadly drowning in
Praying and thinking of home

And your memory is the only company 
So I don't feel alone

I've been struggling all night
Fighting with waves

Oh, I wish I would die
When I provoked the God's rage

But I'll never regret 
Never forgive or forget

I've just seen to much
Now it's time to turn page

I will die tonight 
Please come and take my life

I can't do this anymore...

And I returned 
You thought I had died

I told you I'd win
You thought I had lied

But I never lie to you
I'm finally home...

Keep my memory

To him, and I hope he will always 
                                           have me in his mind
                                 and reminisce all the crazy things
                                            we said together...


Where the lunar passion blooms, you'll find my heart
That sincere part of me that never lies to you
So do me a favour, make me believe it's true
You'll miss me when you're away, you'll cry, you'll hurt

Can't imagine you living a different life
A life I will never be a part of
So, please, just promise me that you will do so
Keep my memory into your mind's spotlight 

Just don't forget me, sometimes I like to think
That you too miss all that we have been through
And some nights you keep dreaming about me

And I play our conversations in my mind
I'm not crazy, you think about me too
So remember me, I'm all you hope to find

    
                                                               Too much for me to express only 
                                                                            .                    in one poem...

Lucky kids

I wish we were still young and brave
Playing around and run all day
We would eat our lunch and go out to play
Climb tall trees and to God we would pray

We would scream at night playing hide and seek
We would hurt our knees and dive into a creek 
And we had bruises all over our bodies
When mama saw them, I remember, she's laughing 

We were lucky kids
Testing our luck every day
And we felt no fear
We didn't care about pain
But it's not my fault
That we're here right now
I tried to save myself 
Or killed me somehow 
And now I'm sick
of their faces
Wish I were still a kid
After all those phases

I wish we were still too blind to see reality
We died young 'cause we believed in immortality 
Flirting with death
Thought we raised criminality 
I think they're dead
I'm the one who kept the insanity 

A child too innocent 
Always desire to avoid the tragedy
Is it too late? Am I insane?
Now I love provoking gravity
A broken heart,
an empty face is my only capacity 
I was judged 
and I still am for falling for veracity 
I have to admit
to get to where I am I had audacity 
But that meant nothing 
if I didn't have tenacity 
Always reaching my goals
I don't believe in incapacity 
My boys are still out there
Looking for voracity 
It makes me sick
You make me sick
I have to hate mendacity 

And I'm still testing my luck sometimes 
I think I'm dead 'cause I believe in paradise 
I'm still flirting with death when I close my eyes
Believed mortality,  thought I would never die

Hope is insane

Last night I had the bestest dream
Nice secret to keep
Do you know how it feels like being in love with someone who's crazy?
Driving you to feel all the time hazy?

So I close my eyes on the bed
And the thoughts rebring the dream in my head
Loving the same scene again and again

'Cause it's the only way to see you alive
Moving and talking,
smile when touches arrive
And I still dream the night I want to revive

Oh, I've talked with you in a million lives
But when you look like this it feels like the first time
When your eyes looked at me sparkling with fire
While I was dying under silver moonlight 

You're not a saviour 
You're my soul on a wire
That got its own wings
And learnt to fly
Perching on your heart
Because it didn't like mine
Don't swing too much
I'm afraid we will die

Last night you had the bestest scheme
Adore me as a queen
You have no idea how it feels like falling in love while being insane
I can't explain the pain

So I read your letters again and again
So I can cry and then at the end
Throw them into fire and slowly watch them burn

'Cause it's the only way for love to survive 
Just keep going
You know how to drive
And the new feelings know what to contrive

Oh, I've walked with you in a million skies
I trust your shinning smile that never lies
When you're with me my soul raises and flies
As if it doesn't know if you love me it dies
You're like flowers blooming on a green lake
And when you blink your eyes, it's all gone, it's fake
Only if I knew how much this was gonna take
I'd be glad for you just to remake

I only sleep to bring you in my head
So I forget sometimes that you're dead
There is no distance between Heavens and Earth 
When love such ours exists in the air

I used to try to build a protective tower
Is that love or a greater power?
But now this wall has some overpower 
Can't be destroyed like a tiny flower
