Crimson Promises: A Tale Hidden In Words
by Christen Kuikoua

In your smile, a sparkling gem, you shone so bright,
A beauty, a vision, a radiant light.
My heart awakened, a poet's dream unfurled,
You, the inspiration, the center of my world.

As friends, together we found our way,
In your laughter's echo, my heart would sway.
In the classroom's embrace, our souls took flight,
I, the master of your emotions, day and night.

DAY AFTER DAY - ALEXIS KARPOUZOS
by alexis karpouzos

Day after day, my voyage ends,
the words die out on the tongue,
and the time come to take
shelter in a silent obscurity.
And one day, under the great sky
in solitude and silence,
with humble heart shall I stand
face to face with the abyss.
Then, I think, I will understand.
Then, I think, I will understand,

LONELINESS - ALEXIS KARPOUZOS
by alexis karpouzos

Loneliness, Emotional pain, walks with us through the day,
and sleeps with us through the night,
Tears that is not visible to the naked eye,
silent screams that no one can hear,
feeling of relentless distress,
Trapped with nowhere to turn,
life is changing beyond our control,
someone else is pulling the strings,
causing this deep ache in the bottom of our soul.
but remember, for every soul there is a soul that touches yours –

THE MYSTERY - ALEXIS KARPOUZOS
by alexis karpouzos

I came into existence, naked yet clothed
with innocence and unaware,
bathed with my mother’s blood,
old folks heard me cry and were so glad.
I came not into this unknown sphere by my own will
and I will not leave of my own will
but i will drink the wine of the mystery
and become drunk with anguish, fear and love.
So short, so precious a life,
a fragile life under threat.
