About Me


In Memory of Aqsa Parvez.
Blood don’t mean
Enough of it spilled will lead to hope
Blood don’t mean
It’s more than tears that make you choke
Blood don’t mean
Tradition’s still alive and well fed
Blood is only death
Blood don’t mean
It will run through your body forever
Blood don’t mean
It will bring great enemies together
Blood don’t mean
A heart’s made soft after battling kin
Roots don’t always make familiar skin
Blood don’t mean nothing
Blood don’t mean
Daddy sticks his neck out to protect you
Blood don’t mean
He made a loving attempt to respect you
Blood don’t mean
This pretty child had the chance to breathe
Blood only let her bleed
Blood don’t mean nothing
Serena Dimaras. Dec 2007.******************************************************* **************************
I've been writing songs since I can remember. I've always used guitar as my accompaniment for singing/writing, but consider myself a chord gal, not really a guitar player. I recorded this song on my 4-track in 2003. I'll have some new songs up soon. Thanks for listening!
