Corridors of dreams in your mind
Lonely spirits of desire on your skin
I look for mercy
In your speechless, hidden grin

My guitar burns, poems disappear
Like false history in your eyes
You look for victory,
Soulless life, in their quiet demise

Song - Forgive Me, Mother



Beyond the headless voice of music
I find nothing, but the cold rustle of death
In the language of questions and calculus,
There’s nothing, but Kini and the 22 frets


Forgive me, Mother
For I could never be your hero
Forgive me,
I could never love that mindless zero

Forgive me, Mother
I can’t be the way you want me to be
Forgive me,
Now I want to fly, I want to be free

Breathless spaces of time between us
My songs die every night at your feet
In the alleys of hope
And hopelessness, struggling to breath

Follow me for once
To the clandestine caverns of art
Allow me freedom, gift me life
So that I can convince my ailing heart


Let the hours chain me with only words
Dissolve your fears in platforms of love
Let the walls break like boneless trust
And let our stories build a heaven above
