Every night.


Every night, I gaze upon the stars.

I feel the silence and the cold breeze.

I do not think anything at that moment of time.

For all I want that time is to be at peace.

I just observe the beauty of nature.

I look at the sky, every night,

As if I’m searching for something, someone.

Hoping, to find the answers to some questions.

I sit there alone, yet I do not feel lonely,

It feels like, my heart and my mind are at war.

But that doesn’t affect me,

For I have the company of all my shining stars.

Father.

Burdened, his whole life.

He faces every day, a new strife.

He HAVE to fight, He HAVE to conquer,

But in the process, He is stonkered.

Though he works day and night.

He’d still never let you go out of his sight.

He doesn’t do that for himself, it’s for you.

He loves you with all his heart.

Of his life, you’re the most precious part.

He’d never let anything happen to you.

Like him, there can be no other,

For such selfless love,

You can only get from your father.

Dil-e-Nadaan.

​Mushkilo bhara ye safar zindagi ka,

Dil-e-Nadaan chalte ja raha hai,

Raaho me hai apno ke hi bichaye hue kaante,

Khabar sab hai is Dil ko,

Na jaane kyun phir bhi ye dard sahe ja raha hai.

Fear.

”I’m tired of this life, I can’t do this anymore.”

He exclaimed in depression.

“I’m right here, waiting for you to embrace me, I’ll end all your pain.”

Death whispered in his ears.

The fear,

Fear of death made him stand back up on his feet.

Fear is a feeling, which is essential to be felt at times.

Fear gives us the strength,

The strength to overcome anything.

So it’s okay to feel fear,

Otherwise, He’d have kissed the Death’s ring.

Nobody stays.

I push away people that try to love me.

I push away people that try to help me.

Yes, I push’em all away.

Because this isn’t something new for me,

This isn’t the first time they’ve said that they want to help, want to love, and want to be with me.

People come, they love, and then they leave.

Why do they come if they have to leave?

So that they could watch me grieve?

I don’t need anyone’s love,

I don’t need anyone’s help,

I’m not weak, I’m free, you see,

I don’t need you, ’cause I’ve got “Me”.

People, they say they’ll be with you until the end.

They, Just Say.

’cause in the end, nobody stays.

The balance.

Cleave your soul in two pieces.

You’ll see it, you’ll feel it.

Yin and Yang.

Good and Bad.

It’s a balance you need to have.

If you choose any one of them?

It’ll drive you crazy.

You’ll become all hazy.

They need each other.

They’re bound to stay together.

Our mind is their palace.

And we need’em both in our life.

Those who embrace this fact,

Are true gallants.

‘Cause only together,

They bring, in our life, the perfect balance.

You’re ordinary.

You aren’t special.

You’re ordinary.

But so is everyone.

Special? There’s no such thing as that.

It’s us, who make people special in our life.

You’re ordinary.

And there’s nothing wrong with it.

But you’re no less than anyone.

And no one’s lesser than you.

You’re a flower.

So give yourself the time to bloom.

Do not try to be someone you’re not.

Do you want to be special?

Then be special in your own eyes.

Now choose what do you want be,

Morose or Wise?

-Abhishek Gupta

Truth, I seek.

Truth, I seek.

So only truth I shall speak.

The world is filled with imposters.

They’re hideous and are in disguise,

Disguise of humans that loves you.

Do not trust anyone, but yourself.

For they wouldn’t hesitate to push you off the edge,

Once you reach your peak.

Life has taught me this lesson,

Which gave me a little heartache.

And for a while I even felt weak.

But, as I mentioned before,

Truth is all I seek.

So only truth I shall speak.

-Abhishek Gupta

I hear voices.

I hear voices.

Voices that make me do things.

Voices which sounds so familiar,

Familiar yet unknown.

Voices telling me who I really am.

A path, to me, it has shown.

A walking paradox,

It says I am.

Sometimes too loud,

Sometimes unclear.

It whispers in my ear every night,

That Lucifer himself would rise to reap my soul,

For it is so dark that it makes the demons fright.

Those voices make me restless,

But brings me peace as well.

I hear voices.

In me it dwells.

-Abhishek Gupta

Do not forget.

Do not forget.

The times you fell down.

The times you were in pain.

The agony. The heartache.

The people who used to look at you with disdain.

The tears you shed while standing in the rain.

The scars on your body and heart.

The times when you were vulnerable.

When nothing in your life was stable.

Do not forget.

But also, do not forget,

How you got back up on your feet.

And also that your heart still beats.

All the happiness you’ve ever felt in your life.

All the people who always had faith in you,

Even when you behaved ungracious and naive.

The love you felt before that pain.

Your family. Your real friends.

Do not forget.

Do not forget.
