Rediscovering the cultural greek landscape through greek poetry...

Denial

Giorgos Sepheris

On the secret seashore

white like a pigeon

we thirsted at noon;

but the water was brackish. On the golden sand

we wrote her name;

but the sea-breeze blew

and the writing vanished. With what spirit, what heart,

what desire and passion

we lived our life: a mistake!

So we changed our life.
