Carlos Gutierrez Poems

I wake up with a pounding in my head
I start pouring rivers of tears
...

While eating sour cream from the refrigerator,
I stumble into the light that hangs upon the switch of Maracuya.

I'm instantly,
...

It’s funny how a person just walks into your life
They appear out of thin air
But suddenly,
They’ve left their footprint inside of you.
...

A petal for a kiss,
A rose for an eternity.

Unlikely people,
...

I can already hear the whispers
I imagine people staring
People passing on rumors
Of a topic so immoral and daring
...

Amore mio,

Close by or continents far,
In my mind you live and linger around.
...

I’d like to give away your smile to the moon
So every night I watch it I can think of you.
...

I read a book this summer
The book was about you
And honestly I don’t know what to think
But I think I know what to do.
...

I may have adored this one person more than an alcoholic conceives his booze.

If being honest,
could only be smooth.
...

I've searched far and wide,
For the kid that lived inside of me a long time ago.

I've dug holes through my chest,
...
