Naive
Atript Abhinav Aug 2015
Sometimes I feel like being naive is a bliss
Sometimes I feel like there are so many things that I'm missing
I try to make myself believe that I want this
But the fact remains, there are so many things that I cannot see
So many feelings that I cannot feel
So much hatred and so much greed
Evil forces never succeeded in corrupting me
But look what my goodness has done to me
Jaded, frustrated , depressed
Will I ever be the same?
Why do we always realize our mistakes when its too late??
Will I ever be able to redeem myself?
the man i see in the mirror lives in the lies
Ragged, exhausted- so many questions in his eyes
The distance mundane
A state of despair
Wish I could paint my walls with all the colors in this world and live confined
Wish I could borrow some light from that big ball of fire up there and take it to the corners where the Sun never shined

Vampire
Atript Abhinav Aug 2015
How do you not burn in the sunlight?
Are you immune or are you of another kind?
Do you walk the earth with 13 in your mind?
Is that flesh actually a veil hiding the demon inside?
Do you want to deflower virgins and leave them like a sheared sheep?
Does the stench of carcass give you ecstasy?
Do you walk through walls when no-one's around?
Do you vile and walk proud?
Can you get into my brain through my eyes?
Do you camouflage like a chameleon and make us swallow your lies?
Would you bleed if I ***** a needle into your skin?
Or will you drain out everything you had ****** in?
Are you on a seesaw ride with angels like the sun and the moon?
Can you breathe in the vacuum??
Would you come to me when I'm lonely and eat me alive??
WOULD YOU DIE IF I STAB YOUR HEART  WITH A WOODEN KNIFE?????
Would you beg for mercy and cry in pain??
Would YOU promise to NEVER hurt ME again?

My Shadow
Atript Abhinav Aug 2015
When my shadow travels east to fade,
The sun weeps farewell
I wave until it vanishes
And embrace the remains  
Shade over hills and dales
The green greys
I give my ears to the final music
The moon rises and stars glitter
There's so much coming back to me
I watch the clouds wither
I close my eyes and dive into the melody
And I levitate from my reality

She

She
She came on wheels,
her eyes pricked into my mind and stuck to remain
a beautiful splinter of pain

Move On
Atript Abhinav Aug 2015
Forget what you don't know,
Forget what you do,
Forget what you were before,
Forget yourself too,
Forget what you're trying to remember,
You're wasting your time moving back and forth and in circles
Close the doors behind you and walk straight,
Crack wide open your world to get rid of things you don't need
Your body is more than a veil for your blood,muscles and bones
Feed your soul
Wave goodbye to the drowning sun,
Embrace the chill of the tired dusk,
Pick out words from the silence of the moon,
We are made of stars,
Sleep through darkness
The world will take a smooth turn and the sun will shine just for you
Breathe in the beauty
Take it all in, breathe it all out
Hold it just to know how important it is to let go
We are immortals
the buried rises up as plants or remains as dust
Ashes travel forever as energy, as life
death is just a transition and end is the only thing impossible
There is no heaven or hell and afterlife
Present is the paradise and we don't die
Know that in a million years, we will become diamonds

YOU

YOU
And hand in hand we danced together,
I pulled her closer and YOU smiled,
I kissed you through her

Love Today
Atript Abhinav Sep 2023
Why was it kept away, my love
This shirt, with love you sew,
So thick was that veil, my love,
This love i did not know,

Lost in the forest of greed I was,
That is where my sickness grew,
So bright were the colors of vain, my love
That is where your death bloomed

You've been through so much, so much alone,
I was not there, I know
A little bit of you is all that I have
This shirt, with love you sew

Still pictures of my dreams that now make no sense to me, filled the space in between me and the rest,
If I was there when you needed me, would fate be the same?

"I will return someday"
The promise I made
But 'someday' never came,
Buried deep in my memories,
She lost herself trying to find me,
16 winters did she wait
But 'someday' never came

So love today,
The lesson learnt late,
Don't let life teach you that,
Life doesn't know the easy way,
Don't let fate break your heart

She's gone too far, too far I know
She is never coming home
That shirt draped over my cold soul,
This life I wait alone
