Nobody can break me, But myself, And I do it so carefully, To build a shelf, Filled with stories of the lonely, Pages of truth known only to me, For I am the one they know, To own the barely beating heart That pumps ink instead of blood; I break it on the daily, To spill words so familiar, Yet foreign like careless whisper, Like the sweet nothings he once gave me, Or the promise he broke chance after chance; Still my heart held on, Ink filled to the brim, Flowing through the tips, Coursing through every vein, At the touch of my bony fingers, Dancing away on screens, Or the clickity clacking, From typing bits of him, But more of me, And how I never knew, That truth is this heart, It bleeds free, It bleeds true, But not in shades of red, Just black and blue. @byizn

I'm difficult and broken -and not at all difficult and broken in that oh-im-so-difficult-and-broken-beautiful way that some women can be. No. I'm just difficult and broken in all the ugly ways it manifests. sahn 4/10/15

the beautiful ones always are~
Destroy me. Take what you can from the middle. Take that golden yellow moon- that sherbert sunset in the center of how I exist, **** it, take it! And Stubbornly I'll be. When all that is left is bones for the jackal to satiate on when all that is heard is bubbles popping and the jaw creaking from the overuse of what was inside me- When that dark and silken predator lies lazy on it's back with my contents fuming in its distention... destroy me, do. ***** my remains with huge heaving gusts of your gluttony. Because you will. Because I am too heavy to carry, I am too light to settle. Oh, yes I'll be your posion, and into every cell I will invade marching with my army, marching with my anger I will wiggle in your ear and chew through the pictures in your mind, eating at the corners of everyone you covet most. I'll call you in a singsong voice that does not end. In every room you'll look to hear- in every corner your try to hide from it. I will flood your soul with my wrongdoings so you carry mine as well as yours. Yes, destroy me- dust. And you will perish from my digestion and you will carry my heavy sins. Oh, what is left? What is left? Just the eternal weight of light and you cannot eat that, On light you can feast but not thrive. It will not still the noise of the rotting wood that sits solid and solitary in the place where someone stole your exclusive rights to feel joy. Sahn 3/26/2015

The Insatiable Raven
I am angry in the way that bubbles in champagne rocket towards air. I am pretty- in that beige and golden way. That heat paints my face, Scolds my cheeks- like an iron to the crispest collar of a well-dressed man. And I am virile in the hot. Lovely reds and pinks and eyes that catch- LaCross nets that will not meet your gaze lest you see the squall I work so hard to hide. I am breathless with my rage, and oh, so beautiful! Finally. In my pain, I am dry and fragile brittle leaves crunching underfoot, the salt left careless by the sea. Nothing grows in me- nothing grows in me. I am dead sea and beauty floats boastful where love cannot swim. For I carry this grief in the way a river stone bears the weight of the rushing water. The lovely and the ruthless. The heinous and the clean.... the very worst of me is the prettiest to see... Naked before the judges table I have no shame. "Such a pity", they'll say. "Such a beautiful girl, all that anger in such a beautiful girl." Sahn 3/24/15

Black and white ink-smudged lines letters Spilling together combinations creating Words Words describing life breathing air into Lungs paper inflated balloons and Written into lines words Flowing rivulets from my pen From my wrists my blood Is black ink pulsing through my veins Words So powerful I want to write them Over the surface of my skin create A canvas of color let them Bleed in until all I am is Words All I ever could be all I ever want to Are combinations of letters Thrown haphazardly together thoughts Spilled onto paper like paint splatters Thrown at canvases Creating beautiful violence Words are a beautiful violence Manufactured for Love or apathy different combinations of Letters shoved together at random my Body is nothing But an amalgamation of Words May I never know anything less than this Truth.
