What is Time?

It was timeless with you

Time was just going

The only thing that made us snap

back into reality were our hungry stomachs

~Tina Meeks

Baby, I Care

Chelsey, I can't say I understand completely yet,

but I wanna

I wanna see where you pick apart the world

Wondering if you start from the core

like regurgitating an apple and going in reverse 

or is there an inverted way of breaking apart without breaking

down

Let no one break you down

~Tina Meeks

(This is unfinished)

Wicked, wicked man

Not so slender

Plentiful, really

Quite gorgeous form

A solid pretender

With truth stretched from birth

With a charismatic grin

Living as air plants do

Don't overdo anything

With out geometric shape and aromatic seeping sip

~Tina Meeks

A Spec of College

It's hard to believe that 

I thought I loved you

Bringing myself to remember that

is like a nightmare of darkened memories

Tinted with a bad trip on LSD

You were someone that 

gaslit me into fragments of distrust

and fear and never owned up to it until

the damage was done

A petty kiss on the cheek to seal the deal

of rejection and pity

A slap to the face would have been equivalent 

~Tina Meeks

One Last Time

You, the persister

The energetic elixir

Perpendicular 

While I persisted on being plastic,

I tried to stretch every morning

knowing I'd never be elastic

That part isn't even tragic

It's how you learned to leech

on and stain me

with tainted childhood dreams,

where your voice was lost in your box

and now you roar when there is no need,

so all the seams are ripped

that used to separate

your nightmares

from your dreams 



~Tina Meeks

All The Feelings

And I'm not insensitive

I just think I have too many tears

to justify and to go around

to make sense of all of these feelings

~Tina Meeks

Starting the new year...

Years bending with time

like rubber bands

Following a continuous beat- it's a game

we all play to keep alive

~Tina Meeks
