Sink into your mother's armsThe womb that gave you birthLet her take your secrets back and lay them in the earthLet her take you in her armsLet her take you homeLeave to her the gifts she gave of flesh and breath and boneSink into your lover's armsThe womb that made you wholeLet her waters slake the thirst you carry in your soulLet her take you in her armsLet her take you homeLeave to her the dreams you made of honours, steel, and stoneSink into your mother's armsSink into your lover's armsSink into your sister's armsSink into your sister's armsThe womb you need not knowLet her fire consume the frame of what you were beforeLet her take you in her armsLet her take you homeLeave to her the mysteries of maiden, mother, croneSink into your mother's arms
