The Light That Blinds

The Light That Blinds
A crack forms in the foundation
Fault line through your defenses
Illuminating the essence
Once clouded by a myth

Store bought conformity
Force-fed duality, I warp reality
The comfort that you will find,
As you remain hidden.
The light betrays,
Casting your true self away,
They remain blinded.
As Vanity possesses me
I am further away
Gripped by a belief in empty words
Driven by a need to prove
The shell may wither
But the fire burns eternal
You hide behind
Cower
The light that blinds
Will never find
What burns inside
You remain blind
Behind the light
