Follow

morning veil of white light

in a moments passing

when we were both so young

in-between the empty spaces

of the unseen, unspoken, undone

intertwined with the mysteries

of the defied, defined, decided

innocence coiled inside shadows of doubt

intervals of silence and screams that cry out

my god, what have I become

cherub, teach me how to fly again

teach me the hymns that the clarions play

write down the words to the psalms they say

see me through this

suddenly gone from the sky

into the light blue horizon

beyond that of what we know

to be the limits end

islands of secret hope go unseen

gardens of reason wither and die

in a moment of weakness

we can behold, believe and belong

in a moment of strength

we can retreat, retrieve, release, repent

my god, what have I become

cherub, teach me how to fly again

teach me the hymns that the clarions play

write down the words to the psalms they say

see me through this

show me the way

morning veil of white light
