Thousand songs my mother



I sing thousand songs everynight ma
When I sing I dont even remember that I came from you.
I sing false songs
I sing broken songs
I sing songs that shatter when the truth hits them
I sing songs for people who dont recognise me
Ma tell me, when you are lying down at night do you hear me singing far away?
Do you not like my songs anymore ma?

Dear Pearl,
I wish to listen to those songs.
I sing them too, ad I know mother's listen.
My curiousity is only to understand if our songs are same.

read this quote from my favorite filmmaker sometime back..." I thought you are diffrent from me..but turns out all lonely people are same."
I guess thats what we sing about..and i guess that everybody's songs are same :)
