Recoil ⋆ Eve Poetry ⋆ Poetry Feature ⋆ Christian Mejia

Recoil by Christian Mejia

As my ink floods the page
Who you are becomes unclear
I can’t trust
That what I see
Is what I know
For every memory
That flashes through my mind
Becomes a reminder
That the person before me
Is someone I used to know
Looking for any indication
That the girl I knew
Is still there
As my heart reaches for hers
Seeking to answer one question
It recoils at the answer
That her beating heart
Is no longer the one that used to beat for me

Christian Mejia

Hi everyone! My name is Chris. I’m a Clinical Psychology student studying in Melbourne, Australia!
I have always written poetry on and off since I was I teen as I way to express things emotions that I didn’t quite understand.

I’m quite a deep thinker and my emotions tend to run even deeper than my thoughts and poetry has really helped bring all of that depth to the surface.

I like to write about deep personal experiences that I have had with other people, but I also like to write about my little observations about the complicated world we live in.

My poetry is driven by the belief that life is difficult and dark, but there is always light to be found in every situation and I try to capture that in almost all my work.
I really hope you enjoy my poetry and it can speak to you in the way it speaks to me. Thank you so much for your time!
