Days
Andrew Gomez Oct 2021
There are days that are fast.
There are days that are slow.
Today is one of those days.
Which ever you feel.
Please let someone know.

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.

Day 1
Andrew Gomez Jan 2021
The new year rings in my ear.
Its the start of something new.
Something so fresh that comes from you.
Spread positivity and love.
For the day starts and ends with you.
On this day we begin anew.
I will write a poem for everyday I have air in my lungs.

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.

All a dream
Andrew Gomez Mar 2021
“Are you proud of me..”
“More than you would ever know.”

It was all a dream about you.
Woke up crying

“I’m here for you.”
“Thanks.”

Heart Problems
Andrew Gomez Dec 2019
How easy was it for you to leave that special person?
You said you understand pain, yet you cause it.
Does pain from other people satisfy your hunger?
So much that you hunger for more?
Your appetite is full of ego with an appetizer of pain.
Pain is what you cause, yet you inflict it on yourself.
Does the sight of your own pain feed that hunger?
If so, why do it to other people?
Make them feel as if they caused you the pain.
To turn the tables and said that they did it.
Your hunger for pain is effortless.
It feels that empty void of what you call a heart.
Your soul is that of a black hole.
Empty, dark and lonely.
When you meet someone with light, you feed on it.
**** the light right out of them until all that's left is darkness.
Emptiness, darkness and loneliness....
It feels that empty void of what you call a heart.

The sunset is so beautiful.
Just like you.
I can compare the two.

Cumulus Storm
Andrew Gomez Jan 2021
There are months where it rains constantly...
There is peace in that...
When its storming around me please be my peace...
Calm me down and tell me "This to shall pass..."
Stick by my side and ill never leave...

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.

Worthless
Andrew Gomez May 2020
Let me just ball up my feelings...
Throw them in the trash and pour gas on it...
Set fire to myself and my soul...
Let me put on a fake smile and pretend I'm okay...
"Hi my name is Andrew"...

Coma Relief
Andrew Gomez Dec 2019
People stand over me and tell me to wake up...
I feel when they grab my hand...
It drains me to know that I can't grab theirs back...
I lay there and just dream endless dreams...
I hear their voices and its soothes me...
I hear their cries and it makes me sad...
I open my eyes for the first time...
"He-Hello" escapes my mouth...

Goddess & Human
Andrew Gomez Jul 2021
"Excuse me?"
"You're the most beautiful woman I've seen."
~
"I mean, you're the most beautiful woman I've ever saw."
~
Of course she laughed at me.
~
"You're laughing at me?"
"I'm sorry I've just never seen someone try so hard."
"Tr-Try so hard?"
~
At this point my mind is racing like I messed up.
~
"Uhm are you not interested?"
"I could leave you alone"
~
"No, I'm intrigued."
"Humans are a magnificent creature."
~
Of course I'm now confused and have this expression on my face.
I start looking around like I'm the only human there.
~
"Uhhh aren't you human as well?'
"Only when I want to be."
"Wha-What are you then?"
"You really want me to show you?"
~
At this point nothing else is going right with my life so why not.
~
"Yes."
~
'Til  this day I'm still blinded by her true beauty.

Truth about Lust
Andrew Gomez Apr 2021
I want our bodies entwined with one another.
Our heart beats in sync.
Locked eyes with each other’s.
Soul against soul.
Eat from the forbidden fruit again.
Make me do crazy things for you.
Keep my lust high.
Keep my mind going and wandering.
90 · Mar 2021
Off Course
Andrew Gomez Mar 2021
“Where’s this draft coming from?”
“When did it get there?”

“It got there when you left me.”
“My temple shifted with the earth.”

“Now I walk forever in limbo”

Battlefield
Andrew Gomez Aug 2021
Your mind is a warzone.
Your soul fights for you.
It sends the strongest thing to battle the mind.
Remember to focus.
For you are not weak.
You are strong.
You will come home (soul)dier.
Sometimes we are at war with out own mind. We fight ourselves because we don't know what to do.
89 · Apr 2021
Just you and I
Andrew Gomez Apr 2021
You got me like I got you.
I never see myself with another person.
Just bring your love and I’ll bring mine.
Let’s go for the high miles.
We’ll make our own mingle high club.
Test the reigns of our relationship.
Build our mental health back to what it was.
You got me like I got you.
Now let’s set the table for two.
Wine for the both of us.
Trust in before us.
88 · Nov 2020
At last
Andrew Gomez Nov 2020
I'm finally free.
It feels good.
My heart no longer hurts when I think of you.
My mind is no longer at war with my words.
I've finally sailed to the eye of the storm.
I'm calm and collected.
I thought you would be happy.

Trust Issues
Andrew Gomez Aug 22
"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."

Enter key
Andrew Gomez Jan 2020
My life is like a keyboard
You can type away for ever and ever
Constant click clack of the keys
There’s always more to be done
Punctuation is important
You can type your own story
Be careful though because
That backspace key doesn’t
Work all the time
Mistakes you make will be there
Til then
Type away...

All or Nothing
Andrew Gomez May 2020
My cup is completely empty...
I ask that you fill it for me...
Careful not to spill it...
Drink me and I will quench you...
I will do the same with you...
Lean on me as I lean on you...
I will be your rock...
Please be my shade...

Fantasy Seeker
Andrew Gomez Jun 2021
If you invited me would you tell your friends?
Would you tell them it was pretend?
Will I be one of those skeletons you hide in the closet?
Do they know you wanted this?
Do I play into your fantasy?
Do you and I sneak off into the night under the moon?
So we can look into each other’s eyes and fall in love again?
Or is that just the fantasy part you were after?
This is a cruel game you play.
But it takes two to play and I'm in.

Tale from the Heart
Andrew Gomez Feb 2021
What are we going to do?
We aren’t meant for each other but yet we stick together like glue.
I peel off this layer and somehow it comes back later.
People scream at me and tell me we’re no good for each other but you know I’m tougher.
I can take the hits.
That’s when I just wanna disappear into the mist.
Going away hopefully I’ll be missed.
Now all I want is one more kiss.
To tell the tale how we separated.
Yet dead men can’t talk.
Especially if he’s in the Dead Sea.
86 · Apr 2021
Past-Tense
Andrew Gomez Apr 2021
The past stays the past.
There is no future with something from the past.
It didn’t work out for a reason in the past.
The past is just time folding in on itself.
So whatever you’re holding onto, just let it go.
The future will not hold your past because it already happened.
That’s why it’s a memory.
Eventually memories fade.
Just like your past.
Put it to rest.
I’ll do the same with mine.
86 · May 2020
Embrace
Andrew Gomez May 2020
If I gave you my life...
What would you do to it...
Would you manipulate it...
Make me believe I chose this...
Choose every decision for me...
Put a leash on me...
Control my every thought...
Control my body...

Would you stab me in the back...
I would give you my rib...
You are my Eve...
Even if you found your Adam...
86 · Feb 2021
Not today, but One day
Andrew Gomez Feb 2021
I see you at the top of these stairs. Waiting...
Hands behind your back and a smile on your face.
I try to run up the stairs but I go no where.
Every step I take it’s like there’s another to keep me from you...
I keep trying and trying but all I seem to get is further away...
So far that all I see is the silhouette of your body...
I sat on these stairs and cried...
Cried until I felt a hand on my shoulder...
It was you...
You said “Come on, it’s time to go.”
You looked at me with those honey brown eyes and smiled...
You asked “How far are you willing to go?”
I answered. “To the end of the world.”

Chest Cavity
Andrew Gomez Aug 2020
Rumor has it that a heart is cold...
At first it was pure gold...
On a steady pace to grow old...
Shape it so it can mold...
Now it just sits in the dark...
Waiting for its mark...
To beat again...

I See You
Andrew Gomez Jun 15
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.

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

How Far
Andrew Gomez Feb 2021
“How far are you willing to go?”
Someone asked me once.

“To the end of the world I suppose.”
Was my answer.

That’s what I’ve been doing since.

Proceed with YOUR Life
Andrew Gomez Apr 2021
I'm tired of sitting here waiting.
For the day that I become someone.
When I'm already someone.
The night time sky calls to me.
I can feel the intuition of my calling.
Something that requires more of me.
I can feel it in my SOUL.
I'll reach out for it.
Just know that I will become what I want to be.
Not what other people think/want me to be.
I'll set an adventure so high that I won't come down.
The altitude I'm heading is on a different level.
I guess this is how Famous people feel.
They strive for that excellence and greatness.
I Will do so much because I am CAPABLE.
So are you!
Follow what YOU DESIRE!!
Not what other people think is good for you.
Just be TRUE and be YOU.
The only thing that stands in the way is you.
Go forth and take point to your life.
It'll be WORTH it.

Spread that love with everyone and let them know that they can achieve it.

Hell and Back
Andrew Gomez Jan 24
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?

Compare and Contrast
Andrew Gomez Jan 2020

Overdose
Andrew Gomez Dec 2019
Seeping through my memories
Like a drug overdose
Foaming from my brain
Making me cry
Reminding me of constant pain
Reeling me in like the fiend I am
Love is what I call that drug
Love is an addiction. Take the right person to cure it.
78 · Jan 2020
Desire
Andrew Gomez Jan 2020
Always follow what your heart desires
It shouldn't matter what other people think
Your heart is all that matters to you
Put it through pain and suffering causes
Immense damage on yourself
Resulting in other ways of pain is useless
You can only cause pain to yourself if you
Let it happen
Push the negative aside and ride
With the flow the air has provided you with
The air will always guide you toward correction
Think of the air as "faith" or "destiny"
If it's meant to be it will happen
If not then the air will steer you correct
Follow your heart and not your thoughts
Never settle for average.

I'll find you again
Andrew Gomez Jun 15
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.

What once was
Andrew Gomez Aug 22
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
76 · Jan 2020
Runneth Over
Andrew Gomez Jan 2020
Your words caress my heart and soul...
The stars symbolize your very being...
I touch the ground with my knees in hopes of falling for you...
I take care of you like it's meant to be...
Like still water you're so calm and relaxed...
I see my reflection in your clear skies like a mirror...
My cup overflows with emotion...
No need for cleaning...
Let that dry land soak it up...

Consequences
Andrew Gomez Aug 27
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
76 · Sep 2021
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.
