My name carved my path
My mind conquered dark thoughts
But your light shines heavy
I feel the warmth radiate my soul
Please continue your path
So our journey can grow old
Andrew Gomez Dec 2024
I ask the moon for guidance.
I toward the night sky.
Only to find stars above.
Glancing in pitch black.
A twinkle here and there.
I lay on my back in hopes of a shooting star.
So I can wish for you one more time.

A dream all around
Andrew Gomez Dec 2024
I keep dreaming of you...

I know I don't exist in your life...

I see that pretty smile.....

I see your nice caramel skin...

I can hear your laugh.....

The way you say my name makes me melt..

Those pretty eyes that I know...

Never knew I live, but in my dream...

For now I walk alone...

To meet you one more time under a false moon...

Andrew Gomez Nov 2024
The night sky fills with her eyes...
A sparkle here, a sparkle there...
Nothing can dismiss her light...
Her voice produces comets so bright...
You could look up all night and never get tired...
If I had a camera to capture every moment with you, I would need an eternity...
When asked about the stars at night I point towards the heavens above...
To show that you will forever be my light...during the darkest times

One of a kind
Andrew Gomez Nov 2024
You say you want someone like me
Until I approach you, now it's not like that.
I can be the best me because there is no one else like me.
You want to be taken care of? Cool I got that.
But when I step up you don't rock that.
Ignore me and then I kick rocks.
You say you want someone who does the things I do.
But when I step up, I'm shot down like a bird.
You don't want someone like me.
You want someone who's more fine and slim with my heart.
It's impossible to find that because I'm one of one.

Bring it back
Andrew Gomez Oct 2024
Speak to me like we first met.
Allow me to smile like how I used to.
Show me your emotions like before.
I'll give you all my attention once again.
Talk to me about goofy things again.
I'll wait patiently to listen.
Just show me you once more.
The person I fell in love with.

My Garden

Be careful who you let in your garden.
Flowers get stolen too.

Two peas in a pod
Andrew Gomez Sep 2024
You and I fit together so perfectly.
Like a puzzle.
You could pick us apart from any crowd and still find us staring into each other eyes.
Her soft skin melts in my hands.
I can feel her heartbeat when we hold hands.
Ba-***, Ba-***, Ba-***.
Her lips caress my cheek and leave bruises of love.
I paint her the world through my eyes.
She is a canvas, and I will be in muse of her beauty.
Exploding with colors that are not of this world.
Yet each spot is something I adore.

Cosmos lust
Andrew Gomez Sep 2024
Your name calls out to my soul.
For me to look for you all eternity.
This is my punishment for just
Glancing in your eyes.
The cosmos grew jealous.
It saw I was not fit for you.
So, space grew cold until it froze over.

Without her time is lost
Andrew Gomez Sep 2024
If time was never real
then why do I feel lost?
When you aren't near
It feels as if I'm in an
Endless loop of lost and
Confusion but as soon as
You come back time is
Moving again like it
Should be...

Shadowy feeling
Andrew Gomez Sep 2024
The shadows follow me every day...
It mocks my walk...
It learned my gestures...
It learned my demeanor...
It has chosen me to live off of...
A parasite of my own kind...
Yet it does not talk or see...
Shadows follow me all day...
Even during the night...

Consequences
Andrew Gomez Aug 2024
I don't need no saving from this world
I got friends who will drink to the end
Raise that mug and heave away
Drown my mouth with the will of chaos
And let me show you why I rule this world
The words that come from this very mouth
Will exalt all your needs
All you have to do is beg for mercy
Aug 2024 · 68
Generational Love
Andrew Gomez Aug 2024
Confide in me and I'll remember your name.
Let's share our love until its intertwined with time.
So, people can tell our story over generations.

Glance at Death
Andrew Gomez Aug 2024
I watched as death crept around every corner
Waiting to take someone's light
Death figured if it couldn't keep the light
Then why does everyone else have a chance
Slowly but surely the light starts to fade
-
"Such misery I bring before you."
"This turmoil you feel is death."
"It is I who bring closure to these ends."
"Yet no one reigns above me or below me."
"This void of a world you call home is decorated and plagued with too much light."
"It is my job to clean this distained burden and mine alone."
-
Death always follows close to those who burn bright
Look into my eyes and see that death has been around
-
"Your time will come, soon enough."

Trust Issues
Andrew Gomez Aug 2024
"This conversation is just for you and me."
-
"How can, I be sure."
-
"You can't but I hope the trust we built will help you."
-
"Trust?"
-
"Yes, trust. The only thing we've been building since the beginning."
-
"Trust is hard to come by these days."
-
"Then I see we don't need to have the conversation."

No time like Fall time
Andrew Gomez Aug 2024
I can't wait for that first gust of crisp cold air.
To stand outside and embrace nature.
I can already hear the crackling of the firewood.
Followed by music and laughter from around
Smores are being made
Crunching sounds are followed shortly there after
The hint of rain is in the air
This is fall
Aug 2024 · 83
What once was
Andrew Gomez Aug 2024
The morning whispered in my ear with delight
Beckoning for a hug
I open my arms and embrace the hug
For how much I missed the warmness
It brought back memories of a different time
Bouncing brown curly coiled hair
Caramel skin, the air filled with cocoa butter
Her honey brown eyes met mine followed by a smile
Oh, how this face meant something to me once
Now all it does is beckon to lure into the darkness
Jul 2024 · 43
Collapsed Star
Andrew Gomez Jul 2024
Another loss in front of my eyes
I feel as if a star exploded in my chest
I close in on myself until the void fills all
Just to be left empty but full
Time without you is all but my existence
I try to hold on yet I feel out of place
This feeling is heavy like a burden
Somehow we know what that feels like
Place your weight on me
And you'll see how much is lifted
I'll gather all my dues and pay the toll
Just to be bright one more time
Jul 2024 · 242
Hate is a strong word
Andrew Gomez Jul 2024
There's not enough hate in the world to describe myself
I hate myself so much I create haste for that affect
The embodiment of hate is just my name
Go and seek shelter for my name brings chaos
It drives fear into my heart and prosper in others
To use and abuse me in their life
Jun 2024 · 88
I See You
Andrew Gomez Jun 2024
Now I'm truly alone.
Your voice is just but an echo.
Bouncing around my mind.
Trying to find a way out.
But that's what's keeping my memory alive.
You're the reason my heart beats.
I am truly alone.
Yet your name is powerful enough to keep me existing.

I'll find you again
Andrew Gomez Jun 2024
It's funny that timing is everything.
Who's to say this isn't the first time.
We've probably met in many different lifetimes.
I've probably searched all my life for you.
What others told me was a waste of time I ignored them.
The only time I had was to find you.
I searched far and wide.
I was in many different regions.
My love for the search was endless.
I'd hop dimensions just to see you once again.
Not only this lifetime but in others.
What else is there to you but a mystery.
How do I know that you'll take me.
I've seen myself many times but I'm never with you.
How many times do I have to travel to just see you once.
There's a possibility that in one time you're mine.
Until I find that one spot where you're at.
I'll keep searching until I fall over and wither away.
When I see my God I'll beg to send me back just to look for you.
And see what really lies beneath that mystery.
Until then, this journey is still on schedule.

The Fall
Andrew Gomez Jun 2024
I remember everything before the fall
How I swayed in the air
How I have seen many nights and days
How I've seen many seasons come and go
I remember it all before the fall
Then one day it all changed when
I was no longer needed
I remember the sensation when I was dropped
All I could think of is how to get my way back
The fall felt like a million years but in mere
Seconds I was on the ground
Ready to begin anew
Jun 2024 · 61
Night sky
Andrew Gomez Jun 2024
Lights in the night sky remind me of you
How far away they are but still so beautiful
They burn bright just like your smile
Continue to be bright until that's all they
Talk about at night
Even after your smile has faded away
Display that confidence that you once had
Jun 2024 · 59
Lifetime Journey
Andrew Gomez Jun 2024
I wish I was told by someone
That pain never ends
I wish I was told that love begins
I wish I told that we fall in the end
To alleviate this pain from under
So I can become stronger in life
Just to be turned into a puddle
Now that I'm here where to begin
To start somewhere new
And begin this journey once more
To find you in life and start again
I will look endlessly for you
Til this lifetime is over and then start again
Jun 2024 · 57
Same time
Andrew Gomez Jun 2024
No matter what the nature looks like
Its still really beautiful
The wind is damaging but also feels like freedom
The rain causes floods that are wrathful
But at the same time the rain
Feels so good against my skin
With each pitter patter it reminds
With each distinct sound that follows
Big drops little drops and small drops
All contain a way to bring life to this world
So when you ask about how I feel about you
I will tell you the same answer over and over
There's nothing that will change my mind from now until its over
I know I'm not a strong communicator but give me time
Things will change and I will learn how to be better for you
Change my mindset and set me free from this world to join yours

Pusher love
Andrew Gomez May 2024
Man this is hard to explain
I was raised to push this pain away
Throw it at my feet, slowly faded the day
You're my Jhene Aiko, stutter through the frame
Make my heart putter just like rain
Got me on my knees praying it's just you and me
Help me make a scene to feel like a fiend
Oh baby the pressure is high got me cracking at the seam
Let me get lost in your eyes, it's all just a fever dream.
Jan 2024 · 84
Hell and Back
Andrew Gomez Jan 2024
I would go to hell and back for that love again.
I would go to hell and back for that peace that I once had.
I would go back to that mind set that I had when I had you.
That love means a whole lot when it's genuine.
Now I am back to being lonely with no love.
Your name stains my teeth.
It leaves a foul taste on my lips.
But that love was to bliss to not conquer.
Only if it was for a brief time.
Every king needs to fall at least once.

Written so it was
Andrew Gomez Dec 2023
I've written poems for people who've just thrown them away.
I've written poems when I was going through hard times.
I've written poems when there was nothing else to do.
I've written poems that have gone past peoples heads.
I've written poems that have not been good.
I've written and written and written.
When will it be my turn?
Dec 2023 · 68
Bliss on a rainy day
Andrew Gomez Dec 2023
Have you seen death at your door before?
Do you know what that knock sounds like?
The heavy burden of those sounds still echo through my mind.
Do you know that death has a voice?
Have you heard someone talk about life so blissfully?
Death laughed about life being bliss.
Death said, "I'd rather live with the hurtful truths than beautiful lies."
Death has no friends but still confides in me.

What is this feeling?
Andrew Gomez Dec 2023
What is holding you back?
That feeling of fear or being rejected?
Is it that little voice in your head that tells you otherwise?
Or could it be that your parents have told you so?
OR did you hear it from a stranger?
Did you dream about it when you were at your lowest?
Did you learn to harness that energy?
How long did it take for you to actually believe it?
How many times were you hurt by words?
Before you realized that they were just words?
If you are still stuck in this place that is okay.!
From what I hear people are still searching for their way out.
Some have found their way like no other has before.
That is something to be extremely satisfied of!
In the end if you can't fiind your way out.
Ask for help.
Sometimes thats all we need.
Andrew Gomez Dec 2023
There is someone out there that is waiting on me
There is someone out there waiting for my love
There is someone out there waiting for my hugs
There is someone out there waiting for my kisses
There is someone out there waiting for my intimacy
There is someone out there that is waiting on me
Andrew Gomez Dec 2023
I ran for my life.
Not knowing the consequences.
Beaten up from the fighting.
I told myself it was self defense.
All I remember is wailing on this person.
I took a step back and paused, then I lunged toward him.

Ghostly Feeling
Andrew Gomez Nov 2023
My head drifts through these clouds
Being up this high smells like rain
Looking down I see nothing but pain
Seeing my lifeless corpse on the floor
Waiting to be dovoured by the board

Life
Andrew Gomez Nov 2023
Lets be honest, it has its' up's and down's
Irrate people all around
Fighting fiercly against time
End all suffering for a dime

(Sweat)Dreams
Andrew Gomez Nov 2023
I lay in my bed at night in terror and fear
Not because of the dark but because of my dreams
I see your silhouette like a daze from a mirage
I have your smile memorized
They way your lips look
The way your eyes fill up with joy
Oh to be in terror and fear
Not because of the dark but because of my dreams

Days Past
Andrew Gomez Nov 2023
Where have the days gone?
Last week it was just the beginning of the summer.
A few days later it was July 4th.
Then Halloween.
Now Thanksgiving.
Soon it will be Christmas.
Where has the time gone?
Never waste your time on foolish things.

Andrew Gomez Jun 2023
The friendship we built was dummy
It turned into something funny
It was lustful for me
It was tasteful to you
The bounty was full
I drank your soul
You emptied my mind
Til we meet again
Our trail will intertwine

Going Under
Andrew Gomez Mar 2023
What does drowning feel like?
It's when your mind is dumping memories and emotions.
It's when you sit there and stare at old pictures.
It's when you sit in the shower for hours letting your thoughts win.
It's when you're letting people in your life that don't deserve to be there.
It's when that message you sent, knowing it still hurts.
It's when every laugh can mask the sadness.
It's when the sun is shining but you're inside all day.
It's when you realize drowning isn't just water.
Feb 2023 · 126
Lucid
Andrew Gomez Feb 2023
Here I am again, writing my thoughts.
If there was only a way to fly in the clouds.
Never to be seen again or found.
It is less likely to be true.
There is only one place I'd rather be.
Between the plains of reality and dreaming.
Where I could see you.
Aug 2022 · 151
Inner Reflection
Andrew Gomez Aug 2022
Now that I have your attention, I could really use your help.
I have this friend who needs this motivation daily.
He is always falling to his own sub-conscious.
That voice in his head is not who that man is.
When you see him, please tell me.
I haven't seen him in a long time.
That shine in his eye...
Has dissipated.
Aug 2022 · 373
Intertwined
Andrew Gomez Aug 2022
I can feel your hands around my soul
I fell to my knees knowing that I'm not good for you
Help me rise where I can be the man you once saw in me
Water me so you can help me grow
Plant the soil in my life and watch me from a distance
I will find my way back to you again as if I was never gone
Just wait and see what I have in store for you
You have nothing to lose but life itself
I want to be there for you all the way but I'm afraid of slipping
Once I fall, I want you to flip it over and trim me all the way down
That so when I grow, I won't be overbearing down to the roots
Apr 2022 · 384
Last time
Andrew Gomez Apr 2022
“When did it happen last?”
~The last time I looked into her eyes…
It felt like getting stuck in a trap.
I miss the hugs and her saying my name.
“Did you hear me?”
~that’s all I could think about right now”
“What? Yeah I did. Sorry, I was thinking of someone.”
~her voice is what I crave at the moment.

Null
Andrew Gomez Jan 2022
I remember when I used to be tough.
I didn't give a **** about anything.
People made fun of me.
I just shrugged it off.
When I met you it all changed.
Our lips exchanged hurtful and beautiful things.
It mattered to me what you said.
It hurt.
It was pleasant.
I went from not giving a ****, to planting seeds.

Dopamine
Andrew Gomez Jan 2022
Wipe these tears away from my cheek.
The softness from your hands make me wither.
I know they have been on someone else.
But the touch of them is all I want right now.
I think I love you again

Notes'
Andrew Gomez Dec 2021
The right notes are not so complicated.
The difficult notes take practice.
The high notes take more strength.
The low notes takes more relaxing.
The higher the scale the greater the note.
Be the treble that counts the beats.
Control the tempo of the notes(life) and you will be rewarded.

Almost isn't Good Enough
Andrew Gomez Dec 2021
I want to tell you that I like you but I'm afraid of rejection.
I'm afraid that when I look in your eyes I won't see my reflection.
I want to try and hold your hand but I feel it would be denied.
I was so close to grabbing it one day when we hung out.
But then I strung it out.
Now it feels as if were only friends.
Destined to be nothing more and nothing less.

Couldn't Believe
Andrew Gomez Oct 2021
I'm high off your love.
I'm high off your ecstasy.
You make my heart dance.
To the point of no return.
I've never felt this before.
It's like a thousand suns.
You got me shining.
Just like my elementary trophy.
I never wanna be sober.
When you produce my high.
Sep 2021 · 80
Everything
Andrew Gomez Sep 2021
I used to want you and only you.
Now I want everything back.
Everything I did for your useless love.
Every "I love you."
Every tear that fell.
Every smile that was given.
Every hug.
Every time we held hands.
Every kiss.
Everything.
