I have received a lot of praise from those close to me for my recent poetry. That is always flattering because rather a poem is fictional or not, your creativity is celebrated, especially by those close to you. The beauty of poetry or at least biographical poetry is that you can grow and make peace through your words. For example, the "Russian Lover" (edited title) poem has a very tragic theme and tone to it. I ended the poem in a very positive way and that helps with cultivating myself. Peace is everything. If you cannot make peace with your shortcomings, then you are going to be in pain. It's not worth it. Focus on the positive and give that light of hope in your poems or life as a whole because let me tell you that the law of attraction is very real. Poetry puts all of the cards on the table, but once everything is creatively addressed, the time for focusing on the positivity within negative events is born. One of the last Russian sentences in the poem is a powerful statement that I made. In essence it says, "I forgive you" among other things. Forgiveness and unconditional love are all that matters.

"Russian Lover" (**EDITED TITLE**) 6-5-2013 by Ando C
***DISCLAIMER*** Although this was posted last week, I decided to rename the poem for various reasons and edit out the lover's name that I alluded to. I usually would never do this but I feel that this is the appropriate thing to do. - ADMIN: 6-11-13 *****
This is by far the best poem that I have ever written. My hope is that the reader can consume the sorrow of this work. I tried to channel my inner William Shakespeare and Victor Hugo. If anyone is offended by this poem, I must emphasize that my freedom of speech is protected by law.

"Condemned"
"Condemned" by Ando C, written in April of 2013
On the front-lines of life
He sees the hatred behind their eyes
A memory that haunts him
It's easy to say, "Let go."
Eyes reveal the truth of cowardly lips
Distress invades due to the hatred behind their eyes
Norms are illusionary
Gold standard full of rust
Why doesn't he fit in?
Why fit in?
Karma and a test are irrelevant
He says, "Fuck karma."
He says, "Fuck this test."
Organs scarring on the front-lines of life
Obtaining redemption is not an easy task
However, a second chance is as sweet as nectar
Some friendships were just not meant to last
Warrior cry on the front-lines of life
As he feels the nuclear heat behind the hatred of their eyes
Happy Hump Day! "Cascade" by Ando C
Here's my first explicit sensual poem. I wrote it about 2 months ago and finally edited it. Here's the final version.
"Cascade" by Ando C
Common now give it to me
Don't be shy
You know what I need
That hot flesh you're hiding
My gaze on you is not lying
Can we cascade?
Let us end this charade
Fusion of our flesh tonight
Common now give it to me
Can we cascade?
Sweet and merciless horny
Squeeze your thigh and solve your insecurities
Electric penetration
Can we cascade?
Now the time has come for us to end our charade
Hump until we cascade
Common now give it to me

"The New School Witch"..2013
"The New School Witch" by Ando C
Hate is brewing inside her cauldron
She tastes the spoon, it's sweet and spinning
Never to trust her again
Keep me far away, keep me far from sinning
She sprinkles a little hate in her coffee
It tastes like Hansel, it tastes like Gretel
Betrayal is her spell when no one is watching
Tears of blood of a childhood that left her
Path of malice, I tried to love her
Broom in flight, full of chaos
Witches trick Macbeth
Before the rooster crows twice, she will thrust the blade in a vulnerable heart thrice
Pandora's box is such a letdown
Sabotage from this witch is a cerebral meltdown
"Hehehehehehe"
Laugh in eternal solitude!
"Cave" 2013...
"Cave" by Ando C
I ride this train
Empire State of mind
Never meant to be be
Drift alone at night
She brands my heart disdained
I ride this train
Wondering how I caused this lonely state of mind?
Never meant to be
Didn't treat her right
Suffice to say, pseudo courage, pseudo might
Aguishly remembering her on this empty train tonight
Joy is for a moment
Regret haunts a lifetime
Love is here, love is gone
Lovers of old love past hide away in caves called buildings
Faces to never be seen again
Only echoes of nourishing voices
I ride this train

"Rainbow" by Ando C ...2013
"Rainbow" by Ando C
This bus moves at the speed of paint drying
Patience is being tested like an alcoholic in recovery
Those precious moments before class that we spent together
My red watch tells me what I don't want to know
I'm almost late and it's time to go, go, go
Sweat will pour out like a thousand million waterfalls
That is the price I will always pay before wasting another second without you
I know what your eyes are hiding
Only a matter of time before the truth starts capsizing
Gazing into your aurora like an eagle from afar
Should I believe in the magic of your smile?
They tease you behind your back
But they are not worthy to be pulled into your magnetic field
A perfect sunny day
A near fairytale ending
That bouquet was always meant for you
The false union of melting lips like an avalanche on the dawn of summer
Bus came too fast
The kiss that never was
(Rainbows are behind the prison bars of a cloud)
Soon the flood came
Stress is the cankerous surface of sin
Acute dagger from within
Pierced from the darkest corners into the sweetest glare
Like a thief in the night without warning
It was all gone and affection subsidized into nothingness
Harvest of tear seeds I planted in you
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
(Rainbows are behind the prison bars of a cloud)
Growth is to guilt what yin is to yang
Feeling overwhelmed like the day water met thunder
Lost in the crowd with plenty of curly hair around
They turned their heads and at that moment it was clear that you were gone
Not worthy to see your face
Confess a foolish sin like a cub roaring in distress
Remorse is the cousin of the ghost that dwells in the night
(Rainbows are behind the prison bars of a cloud)
Hope should always be the span of the Andes
You are the ray of light that humanity rarely strives to be
Hope penetrates the dream world
A second chance rarely comes around
Yet honesty is always best
(Rainbows are behind the prison bars of a cloud)
You dwell in me and I dwell in you
Forgiveness is our covenant
Your light is in me and my light is in you
And together our ray of light will burn bright like the redemption of timeless rainbows
You shine in me and I shine in you
Our rainbow will be our covenant forever
I still believe in the magic of your smile
Rejoice, the flood is no more
A rainbow smiles upon the sky

"Track 1"
“Track 1”
Did change really come?
Or did the seasons change?
The mind is supersonic.
Travel back in time to change what cannot be undone.
Become everything they said.
What is their character?
Scavenger in the insatiable darkness.
No light to find the carcass.
Passion to resurrect the carcass.
Wheels are like perspective.
Put your foot on the gas.
Positivity is like a flash within the darkened sky.
Strike the unprotected heart.
Heavy heart.
Like an ottoman at the throne of darkness.
Ambitious swan.
With the wingspan of a hug.
Glorious melody.
Cling onto love.
"Sweetness on the Lower East Side"
You are the sweetness from the Lower East Side
You are the flame in your mother’s pride
Hear the chariots, they roar
You are the friend that I adore
Tears on the dawn of a Spring morning
You are the friend that lifted me from mourning
Clinging on to love while the world crumbles is my passion
You define compassion
My truth in you will cause repercussions and I’m scared
But you’re not a diamond dozen, for you are rare
May the obelisk of our friendship never fall
I rather have you close, than never at all
The Island, The Ocean
Your long black hair swings like the strangeness of our relationship
My hand on your waist as we dance to the beat of the half moon sky
Whisper softly in your ear, “What if you chose back then to love me?”
Scenarios are just like shooting stars upon the galaxies of broken hearts
Our broken hearts that were made by unfair words and unshakeable diction that is forever carved upon unbreakable stones
Every now and then, the special place of my mind that remembers you tempts me
You haunt me in my dreams like the howl of old love ghost past
If I could kiss you now, your lips would radiate with the hope of us that once glowed in the atmosphere
But now our sadness is swallowed by the waves

2011:
La Bruja
Are you a witch?
Seduce me with your potions
I am under your spell
How did this happen?
I want more, I want more
Are you medusa?
Your eyes molded me into stone
This gaze has stopped me in my tracks
I'm not scared, I'm not scared
Are you a liar?
This vicious tongue
Sell me a lie on how you hate to feel my energy
Feed me lies, feed me lies
Are you a gypsy?
Sell me your soul and I will buy it ten thousand times
Take my money, take my money
Are you a criminal?
Did you stab a heart or a back, or a little in between?
Abduct me, abduct me
Are you a shooting star?
This energy is not from this planet
Crash on my yard, crash...
Are you an angel?
Or did the heavens throw you to the wolves?
Are you the devil?
Or does your aura always raise the temperature around you?
Are you a cure or are you an infection?
Or are you the broken hearted?
Your tears burn the land around you
The field’s burn, they burn...
If our worlds swim in the dark clouds
Then when they collide, sunshine will glide upon the rainbows
“Embrace”
“Embrace”
Drowsy eyes drift to a secret place within
A place where your undiscovered love was found
Your embrace defined the unexplainable
When insatiable feelings consume us, they penetrate our soul
That five second bliss, oh how we want to hold it forever
This glorious, angelic path will lead me to you, my undiscovered treasure
These ears heard the horrors that brought your conflicted spirit
Oh how pain could break us and bring us to the limit of sorrow
Empathy shifts this gear of love into overdrive
And soon I shall find you, my undiscovered treasure
2010 poems
- All poetry written by Ando C
2010:
"Forced Upon My Will"
A windy day
I was forced upon my will
To help a friend that I loved
So many days I am sick
Why couldn't I be in a warm bed on that day?
Desperate for so long
Wish upon a star or asteroid
I just wanted someone real
Someone to have and hold for me
Wish came true but be careful what you wish for
For what you wish for can come at the wrong time
Love is always on the right time
But pain never is
Instant chemistry
You were a treasure that I found
The pain in your eyes
The honey on your lips
The sweetness you hold that you could not taste
I did not desire this in a time of cross roads
A new wind called my name before love found me
Commitment is key but stubbornness cannot be unlocked
How could a heart be broken when love will never leave?
I am sorry for entering your life when real love from me is all that you ever needed
I am sorry for breaking your heart when I left before I ever loved you
"Go Away"
I'm on the floor now
Contemplating why
You hate me so much
I'm begging
I'm pleading
Why don't you just let me go now?
In peace, away in the sunlight
I try to reason
But you have the seeds of hate planted within
You held me back for so long
I cannot say a word
For you cannot reason
You refuse to understand my tongue
I am not a sick child
Grow from within and try to reach the stars
You say you love me but you do not show it
The sight of you is unbearable
Abused and raped my compassion
Am I so unlovable?
Are you that impossible?
Your love abandoned...a long time ago
I am not a baby needing mama's milk
Just looking for support without all of the effort
Burn my heart that was made for loving
And will it ever beat for you?
Burn this soul that was filled with compassion
Compassion I once had for you
Look in the mirror and see the monster
The monster you became
Reflect on those “traitors” and see that you let them go
Let them go a place where they cannot find you
In the morning pray
Pray to the God that will some day save you
"His Grit"
It's a journey that life put him in
Where hope is as radiant as a sakura tree
The light at the end of the tunnel is called redemption
He wonders why his hopes and plans sometimes turn into a rocky road
The God above has a plan for us all
Not every day is his day
The days following a failed conquest feel like a null meteor that explodes into nothingness
But when he held out his arm asking for help, an epiphany calmed the storm of the fear within
And when he saw the light again, he fell upon his knees
"The Chill"
A dark lair
Where monsters roam
She sleeps in her bed called peace
She awakes from an eerie creak
A witch laughs in the fog and then the girl screams
She runs and runs
Until it touches her
A chill rapes her spine
When it smells her fear, it says she is all mine
As she jumps out of bed, she is relieved that it was only just a dream
Only then to see a demon at her door, waiting maliciously...
“The feeling that only we know”
Once upon a time
I was down upon my knees
Praying and imagining for you to discover me
I imagined you long ago and I am now sold
That it was destiny that brought us together
High above
The moon shines down on those cold and lonely nights
Those were the nights were we didn't have each other
Those nights when we needed each other
But now your eyes take me in
To that soul I want to mend
Now only your smile needs to shine because
We have each other on those warm and lovely nights
Your skin is so warm and it melts these eyes that are glazed on you
Temperature rises and this feeling is so insatiable
Because I only need you
How precious are your eyes and oh how they reveal your soul
That precious soul and that precious heart of yours
I will always hold onto them because they're worth more than the world
Nothing compares to when your lips meet mine in the battlefield of love
We will travel to new lands but we will never lose each other
I will always be your shoulder to cry on when you need to move on
So long as you keep smiling, you will keep this generator of my heart running
My beautiful darling
Never give up and never surrender and always be bright
For you are my wish upon a bright star
