The Cherubim

We are the cherubim who
chased us out of our dreams
The love we lost playing
hide-and-seek with ourselves

We are the silence lost in
the sound of our hushing
The maze we made seeking
to lose our way home

We are the light we hide
afraid it’ll undo all we made
The flaming heart that melts
our shields from within

We are the storm that comes
to the house build on sand
The sky within, the void
that holds every dream

We are the light we find
behind the blind spot of I
The inner sun piercing
through our darkest weaving

We are the puppeteers
pulling the strings of our fall
We are our saviour
each one the one that saves all
