POEMS
 
 

Some day 

 

Some day your voice, will cover the earth,

and  turn all the people, to line and then,

to look up the sky, to see our world,

the birds and the flowers ,inside their souls.

 

The hope of sunrise, the piece of the world,

that day , the people believes not alone,

will change, the way to look up the line,

the line of the sky, the end of the life.

 

And give hand to peace, give reason to love,

together to face, the line of the life.

 

Chrishoula Demetrakakis
   

The dream

 

In darkness quite,

the world seems to be,

the world of my dreaming,

that people can live.

 

No frontiers, no colures,

not doubts for exist,

the spirit of glory,

in soulpower of will,

 

the peace to sunrise,

and peace will lead,

not only in our dreaming,

in world, we believe.

 

 

Chrishoula Demetrakakis

 

Oh! Beautiful day

 

Oh! Beautiful day, from mountain the sun,

Is rising, new day, in mind a new start.

The flowers are turning, the leaves to the light,

the birds sings again! A new life just comes!

The earth, keep running and running around

and hopes and prospectives, keep warming ours hearts.

Oh! Beautiful day!

Let’s see our word, with day’s new eyes,

With peace in our souls

and our blue sky, reach deep and to stay ,

Inside our heart, in mind, in words,

in kindness, in acts, besides to see,

if somebody for us, to touch us, waits!

Let’s enlighten the people!

Let’s lives get back! to life decision!

In peace! And word’s love!

Let’s open horizon, the frontiers to world!

In peace! Find the reason to stay so long!

The world lives “today”, but foresee the “will”,

to live! And “tomorrow”! In world’s soul, in peace!

The peace is decision!

for people to leave!  World’s life! To continue!

To world, we believe!

Oh! Beautiful day!

Bring light! And the peace!

Chrishoula Demetrakakis

This moment

 

 

 

When border erective,

was searching  to find

the "why"blue sky 

extends, so long line.

 

Your mind ! the power!

to reach up so far,

the earth is  just now,

creating  the life!

 

The  moment is now!

Your «will», will  be done,

your  ground  life existence

was broken ,to such

 

lost questions, with «why»

and words  crushed in pieces,

when  still «why» remains,

the feelings, no need!

 

Your sun and your life,

some day will come,

some day when  mind,

does n’t need any «why»!

 

 

Chrishoula Demetrakakis

 

I am not afraid

 

 

I am not afraid, of the fights

and the forfeit of my will,

but I am afraid ,for war to knife ,

that turns the fire, around  to me !

 

I am not afraid of revolution,

that lights! the darkness of my soul,

but I am afraid ,of any violence ,

that ruins the lines, of all and most.

 

I am not afraid to be alive!

but I am afraid, to be content,

with my self and pass thought hide,

against the rules  to life and death.

 

I am not afraid, the end of walking,

that show me where, I have to stay,

but I am afraid, if  on my way ,

forget, my lines and then,  I bend!

 

I am not afraid, if any day,

I ‘ll loose the life and dreams to live,

but I am scared, a thousand times,

till then, to be, a dead ! in need!

Our life

 

I don’t say why, when cloudy comes,

Invention imitate with realm we inquire.

I dont say why rigors, conquer empty towns,

one stop lead to an other and then to barrage.

I don say why, the words hurt inside,

our life rule over, a trip off the whys.

 

Revolt, is perceiving 

I am free, is reversing,

 

We stray for something, that legend mistakes,

embark to adventure as crew of a risk,

but no need of witness, the time apogee.

Insight the magician breaks moon into piece,

our life scarcity is clinging to love,

the human existing, depends on the peace
