harness the glow
I S A A C Aug 2020
Ran from me, the iridescent spark in me vanishing
From the cutting comments to the opposed shame, it was damaging
Made me second guess, thinking I was second best
Pretended I wasn't blessed, monumentally stressed
But when I got depressed they pressed me more
Only loves the hues of my deepest bruise
Pointed and poked until the bear came to
Bite the finger off the master, I am not longer a slave
To the concept of your society, nor to the silent law engraved
Within the mind of the empty
A fate I could never envy
If you don't want me to succeed; forget me

Disney Delusions
I S A A C Jun 2020
I used to begrudge
I used to dream of
My family unit resembling the ones on the screen
Disney was the culprit of my delusions and dreams
That in my current situation could never fathom peace
But in my puddles of tears, I finally see the crown on me
The emerald accentuating my babydoll eyes
These eyes that vow not to cry
Over many things, I lust for
And trustful in the universe
That will deliver everything meant for me
In spades
Convinced me that was bound to be would be
Then suddenly I was the powerful being I was meant to be

King of Cups
I S A A C Aug 2020
Toes digging into the water, my mind is so clear
Floating on the boat forgetting my fears
Kissing the sun forgetting you my dear
Hair perfumed with salt, beach waves
Skin laced with lotion, sunbeams
Smile painted on, the house of cards cave
Makes me soar like dragonflies and rationalize my problems let them be disguised
Within the shivering black that the sun cannot penetrate
Within the deepest depths that harbor sea monsters' eyes
A mouth of chiseled layered teeth and skin so scaly and slick
No ounce of fear I have inside
Relaxing within its mouth because my rise was prophesized
WATER

— The End —
