Stone Seed

I am the daughter of a stone man
a deer with wind gave birth to me
I was born the color of the earth
from a bath of fire and steam

I searched the world for my cause
believed truths of others
the lack emerged in my conscience
of the sky where I grew up

I returned to the refuge of stone and mud races
to the bosom of blood stained by everything
to the field of childhood and death
to the wind that imposed my fate

I returned to the land that my feelings loved
where I did not find what I was looking for
for this moment I have lived
today I live my lost pride
