| I'VE ALWAYS BEEN A WAR OF HEAD VERSUS HEART. my name is sami. i am a rockstar-sophisticate, composed of quivering papercut fingers calloused with gardening and stained with ink and typewriter keys, hourglassed by lean shoulders and protruding hips and scalloped ribs, curling bones and open kiss of bellybutton. i have more paper than i do sanity. my eyes are a few shades darker than my messy hair, a near-black, smoldering corkchar, rimmed with inky eyeliner and some neon shade of shadow. i’m a painter, photographer, a writer, graffiti artist, poet, renegade and romantic – one of those people who can stop certain moments, color them with a tiny word and bring your rigid heart to your knees (shit, didn’t even know it had knees, did you? i’ll sprinkle it with pepper and feed it to you in the face of a hunger you never knew you had). i’m the one sitting in the corner at a slow rolling boil drinking ginger ale. i’m the broken teeth of hockey players and the grit under a street kid’s nails; i drop my cans and pick up my paintbrushes easily as a snake shedding skin. know this: nothing in life is free. i have the heart of a robot, asbestos-carved core, steel-wired circuitry and lackluster peeling gloss. people will shoot you down as soon as you try to stand up. i've been crucified, burned, beaten. and i always get back up on my feet. |






please and thank you

you were a sleeping lesson
for EVERY INSOMNIATIC EPISODE
i ever had. "abestosabestos," you whisper.
"i'm just a shadow of a person," i cry to you.
