Emily Wells

I became the color
i become the daughter and the son
When the feast is over
welcome to another one
Lay my body down down
down upon the water
wrapped up in the clothes of my mother and my father
o this is longing
i want to be complete
I was waiting round in a little jump seat
i had a hunger
a mouthful of interludes
You'd do anything just to get rescued
I had longing
isn't that the key
take take taste taste sweet
They said I'd gone south
I'd gone asunder
They don't know hunger or what I been under
They were all laughing
thought i was debris
I was just free
