He has left us.


In this beautiful world,

Animals and humans are confined to exist, together.

He considered them both, his beautiful creations once,

But as it is said, nothing lasts forever.

Humans made missiles and guns,

Now they kill each other and also animals.

Because of our own deeds,

He has left us,

Left us in vanity.

You want to know why God left this place long ago.

Because animals are now more sane,

While humans have lost their humanity.

Coffee. 


This morning I woke up, stressed.

Thinking, why am I not, just like others, blessed?

Anxiety and depression always lurking inside my mind,

“Why is my life so fucked up?” I thought.

Gazing upon the sky, I asked.

“Why art thou so mad at me?”

Feeling low all of a sudden, I took the first sip of my Coffee,

“Wait, what an amazing life I have!”

I exclaimed with joy, recalling all my achievements,

When I looked at all my Trophies.

“This is why we need Coffee in Life.”

Unspecial.


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.

Love is evil.


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

Silence.


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

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.

-Abhishek Gupta

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.

-Abhishek Gupta

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.
