Selective I am, when it comes to humans.

I do not just make friends,

I give them a chance to be a part of my family.

I might be a prick to others, even rude at times.

Complicated I am, kind of tangly.

But my humans, they just know how to handle me.

I do not hold grudges against anyone,

Why should I?

If someone I love hurts me, intentionally,

And disappoints me, gravely.

I do not tell them anything, I do not react.

Just like I made them special, in my life.

Unspecial, they become again.

-Abhishek Gupta

Love is a blessing,

It brings peace to your soul,

They say.

Love completes your life,

It makes you whole,

They say.

What they never say is,

Love is also evil,

It creates such turbulence in your mind,

That your mind and heart is in a constant brawl.

It’s a pit, once you get inside,

There’s no coming out it.

No matter how hard you try,

It makes you a cripple,

Who cannot even crawl.

-Abhishek Gupta

I can hear the silence,

Snakes hissing, Cold breeze,

And all the violence.

There’s no one around,

No one ever was,

No one ever will be.

Allured by darkness,

Alone I always stay.

But now I’m tired of this loneliness,

For I’m afraid, it might kill me,

Someday.

-Abhishek Gupta
