SOFIA SKLEIDA

 


Canvas

 

Shells

I will collect beautiful corals

from the abyss of your eyes

Plum pearls look like

Light and shine scatter

dragging the hesitation,

the embarrassment of the moment

Your lips

cool the flame of the soul

soothes  the unbridled adolescence

Stable figure your eternal inertia,

your immobility

And the soul crowns you with angelic wings ...

 

 

For That Kiss…

 

For that look

 you begged while leaving

For those nights you cried

lifting all the   sufferings of the world

You felt the betrayal

to roll on your forehead

The Injustice to flog you

Hypocrisy changes your will

Τhe lie to greet you stubbornly

For that bitter kiss

 we exchanged in our thinking

and kept in our souls ...

 

 

Invisible Hearings

 

The sounds of silence are sensual

Words roar in the dark

Divided into Syllables

Letters

Phonemes

Graphs

Feeling

Eros

Love

Passion

Wear of time

Sigh

Affliction...

Where is the soul?

It is lost

It sinks

Meditates

Recalls

Logic and judgment in an obvious crisis of survival

The winner is the eternal lover of life ...
