Obscure

Obscure

A Poem by KissByMoonlight

A completely contemptuous assault
My very own heart.
Burning my existence into cinders
As I desperately try to catch my breath.

Seen as an embarrassment in the public eye
They turn up their noses
The pungent smell of my failure stains their “perfect world”
The obscurantists.

They dispatch their worst to make sure I stay at the bottom
It is an almost welcome bittersweet punishment …
But unnecessary
I know their contempt for the strange…
The extraordinary.

My talent,
The one thing that makes me happy…
My personal crucifier.
My lifeline.
My beacon.
