Mother swallows golden sand
Whispers: She's taking back what's hers
Her feet are two split continents
Her heart is the map of the world
Lay with me though my storm, she says
He's a moon to myself
I ask her:
But where does the heart go
When it's taken from the motherland?
Unlike the sky
From ?
I'm searching for a safe place
To empty
Mother crashes her body against the shore
Says: Pain is what we carry upon our backs
Love is being silent about the wake
The death of the motherland
Is not a ? she says
But in everything we forget
And you're not so privileged
You are a child of fire and water
The strength to be the storm
And to carry it is within you
So storm, she says
And I will carry you ?
The body is a continent
But may your heart
Always remain the sea
