Synopsis

Frenetic, fervent and musical, Songs of My Surrenders is the follow up to di Saverio's highly acclaimed epic poem Crito Di Volta. Whether writing about romantic love, filial reverence, friendship, or brotherhood, Di Saverio insists on passionate and profound connection.

A wind of dust blows my tears

Into the daisies of the jetty where I wait

For you continuously; is it true

What they say, that you no longer love

Me? I will wait here, still. I will not move.
