Bodily Exile

by Sally Louise

/

lyrics

I’ve been exiled in my own body
And a drought has left me achin to be free
From the wretched thoughts that I’m not worthy
Just when the world was dark, an oasis saved me.

Call me renewed
Call it desire.
Fetch me myself,
I’ll start a fire.
Around my cup,
The tea leaves read
“You’ve found your life”
Released, freed

Calling up my soul, I begin to moan,
And the cries inside my heart come out as groans,
I’ve tried to unlock the door, turned every stone,
But my door’s been locked so long, I could only roam.

Every single turn is a surprise
And the flutter in my soul begins to rise
As I look in the mirror I don’t recognize my eyes,
My mouth is freed from bounds I tied up with your lies.

Dancing in a circle with my tambourine,
My sisters, Miriam, around the flames, sing
As we hold hand in hand, the joining ring
Creates such force, I cannot help but scream!
