Overpowering


The light it shines so bright, it blocks out the shadows of dark
In the community-minded everglades of green paradise lost, the long rays of the sun-
Forgive everyone, except those who cannot see and are blinded by all that made them come undone.
When you can see it all fade away and the silence overpowers everything,
Then to survive, without props, without delusions, means facing harrowing truths-
The kind that are so big, that it is easy to ignore them, by looking at the distracting news.
