Imposter!
Khyati Nov 2020
What if that hope
which determines the certainty of your existence
in this world tomorrow
ends up being the Imposter?
Just don't waste your present in order to make sure your future is secure. Cause who knows if you'll even get to see a new day tomorrow or not. It's just a matter of that hope we persist within us so don't let that hope take over you completely!

All that heals!
Khyati Sep 2020
'Sometimes,
A tight hug
A kiss on your forehead
A strong shoulder, to cry on
and those words saying, "It'll all be okay"
is all that is required
to feel the miraculous healing power
!'

Acceptance.
Khyati Aug 2020
It's not that you require
some change every-time.
Instead, sometimes, all you need is
to accept the way you are!

Standing Strong....Again !
Khyati Aug 2020
I'm trying not to break, anymore.
I have gone through, for what I call the "worst"
But it isn't the end I am sure.
There's a lot to come
that storm of pain is still waiting for me to fall
That feeling of vulnerability is still
tucking me in into those sleepless nights.
But now I have got to be strong
Strong enough to go past that storm.
I have to keep on living, for what they say, "breathing".
Cause I never know
what life would have to offer tomorrow
or the day after that.
That's what keeps us alive : a speck of hope,
shrouding our fears, day and night!
"I'm broken. I know that. It's a long, hard process but little by little you start -picking up the pieces. And you realise what you're making is a mirror. And the more pieces you put together the more you see yourself."

Someone I love-d
Khyati Aug 2020
I lost a girl, few months back
that I once cherished while looking in the mirror.
I wish I stayed a bit stronger, back then.
I was deeply and faithfully, in love with her.
She was lively and chirpy.
But now, we don't hang out anymore.
We don't laugh together anymore.
And I miss her
I miss the talkative self
I miss myself :/

Love at 2 Am.
Khyati Aug 2020
.At 2 Am,
Under the starry night
We danced to the beats of our cosmic hearts
while our love, just like those fireflies,
kept on glistening so bright
.
Well....

What if?
Khyati Aug 2020
Have you ever choked, while crying?
Well, I have, everyone has........ maybe
But what if it isn't the tears
choking you down to death
What if its actually your soul
resisting anymore hurting
Or, what if its actually the fear
The fear of vulnerability
The fear of ending up helpless
Yeah! that's my and maybe everyone's mightiest fear
But what if it's certain
that we all have to go through the worst times
And what if it's certain too
that we'll get better, one day
But what if it's not
What if nothing is certain
And you may have to go through the worst
before that "better" actually comes.

What if everything is just an illusion
and you are the illusionist
Illusionist of your own fears and what ifs
.
Well just some intense writing up there...Think about it, as in, feel those words.

The Charismatic Smile
Khyati Aug 2020
There's so much to say
Yet so less to speak
Hundreds of things to scribble about
Yet not a drop of ink blotting the white sheets.

The scars of her soul, the pain in her teary eyes
So much to express, honey
Yet she hides it all
Behind that charismatic smile!

uNtItLeD
Khyati Aug 2020
I look in the mirror and feel sorry
For those who have to "tolerate" me, every single day.

But I'm glad for the ones who already left.
Cause, I'm sure I wouldn't have stayed with me, either.

Now v/s Then
Khyati Aug 2020
Months ago:

Me: I'm sad
My soul: It's just a phase for it shall pass.

Now:

Me: I'm happy today
My soul: Its just a phase for it shall pass

Happiness - A fairy tale
Khyati Aug 2020
I have forgotten how
real happiness tasted like.
I no longer remember
the last time when I wore an actual smile.

Now, I hardly believe in the
"happy v/s the sad" days
For now, its
"worse v/s the worst" days..

When Me is rude...

Winsome Moonlight!
Khyati Jul 2020
Sometimes I wake up
in the morning
only to wait for the
night to take over the sky
And the sun to bid its early good bye.

And hence I'll make love to
the winsome moonlight
.
In love with the night sky!

Beautifully Broken!
Khyati Jul 2020
Broken strings
Off-tuned notes
Worn out picks
Wrecked lyrics

Look how you broke her heart
just like a shattered guitar.

Art
Khyati Jul 2020
Art
A writer inks down
the storm of emotion he carries
He disguises his pain
In those beautiful words
weaved to form legendary sentences.

And people think its Art!
To all the beautiful writers out there

Dying alive...
Khyati Jul 2020
Its painful to die deep inside
While being just alive enough!

She is Strong yet broken!
Khyati Jul 2020
She is strong
But beneath that divine skin
lies a scarred and broken soul
who learnt how to get up
every time it falls!

She is strong
But behind that beautiful smile
hides a broken girl
who learnt how to fight
all the pain out!
Jul 2020 · 106
Darkness.
Khyati Jul 2020
She loves spending time
with darkness.
After all its the only friend she has.
For those of you who could actually relate!

Error 404
Khyati Jul 2020
Oops! something went wrong
Looks like your order request for 4 tonnes of happiness
has been declined (yet again).
Better luck next time!
Woah and then they say "have a nice day"

Acrophobia
Khyati Jul 2020
I'm acrophobic
But I ain't afraid of heights.
Instead, what I'm really afraid of
is the fall.

Behind the Scenes...
Khyati Jul 2020
And when they say,
"I'll be there for you, always"
They mean
"I'll be there for you, always
just not when you actually need me"

Me, Myself and My Soul
Khyati Jul 2020
As the sun has started to set,
my hopes are heading back.
Some inevitable demons have started to take over my mind.
I can see everything fade.
Even my shadow has abandoned me.
I have never seen such abstract darkness.
I'm all alone inside my room.
I'm scared, but not scared enough
I ain't afraid of the darkness of the room,
but the darkness inside my very own head
My soul would soon start unleashing the ruthless pain
it went through, it'll soon demand answers.
Answers for why it can never be reassembled.
Answers to why it can' t be unscarred.
Answers to why it keeps on drowning in the ocean of deep pain
Answers to questions i can't even explain.
I'm afraid of being tortured by my own soul,
who seeks for those answers which I myself don't know
I'm afraid of being all alone, in such abstract darkness.
Cause the inevitable demons aren't unknown,
They are the screams of my very own scarred and broken soul.

Toxic
Khyati Jul 2020
What if the dead plants
you water today
Start bearing toxic fruits tomorrow!
Well you have to somehow stop entertaining the wrong kind...just sayin...

Dear Happiness,
Khyati Jul 2020
You kept pushing her away,
When she needed you the most.
And now that she has hugged the pain,
She has learnt to live without you.
When happiness takes you for granted.

Hell- the new heaven
Khyati Jul 2020
And after all that struggle
Of surviving out the immense pain.
"Hell" seems like the new Heaven!

Colours

"The world is colourful"
But, sweetheart
I am colourblind.
Rainbows might fascinate you
But Black is the only colour
I like.

Tour to my soul
Khyati Jul 2020
The freezing cold dungeons,
The ruthless castle of thoughts
Darker than the darkness
That’s the way to her soul!

Don’t go too far, sweetheart,
Or you’ll get lost.
This is some oblivious maze
Carved with cements of mistrust.

Laying trapped here inside
Among the profanities you threw
Finding a way out from the aisles
Of tormented pain which you grew.

Could someone rescue her out?
Before the insides of inside get slaughtered.
The pain has been suffocating her
and now she's screeching for salvation!
Well it kinda justifies my "location" now.
Jul 2020 · 110
"I'm fine!"
Khyati Jul 2020
It isn't the "how are you?"(s) that hurt
But the disguised pain,
behind the "I'm fine" (s) that impale!
Trust me, its really difficult to say "I'm okay" when you simply aren't! :(

"Abstract wounds"
Khyati Jul 2020
Some wounds can't be cured
by band-aids which cover.
In fact the abstractness of such scars,
can't be numbed
even by anaesthetic hangovers!

Expensive Smiles.
Khyati Jul 2020
She wouldn't have bought that smile,
to hide those tears
Only if she had someone
to wipe them!
Well I buy 5 smiles per day. Hell expensive dude!!
Jul 2020 · 120
Numb!
Khyati Jul 2020
I wonder why your cheeks don't hurt,
Even after all those hours of faking that pretty smile.
I wonder why your eyes don't ache
Even after crying recklessly the whole night.
I wonder how your throat is still okay,
Even after all that screaming in the locked room, out of fright.
  I really wonder how you are keeping up,
Even when the tremendous pain has been breaking you all this while.

Cause maybe you have become so numb that you feel alright even when you aren't alright.

Sweet Poison!

Aladdin's Lamp.

I'm
tired

Now only if everyone could stop pretending!
I'm literally so done with people like these. Like could you stop wearing that mask over your face and be you like really you for just once!

Redefining Beauty!
Khyati Jul 2020
They call me beautiful,
For even my scars are beaded with jewels of pain!
They call me charming,
For  even my tears shed down like pearls, as in the monsoon rain!
And then they call it a day,
For even my words, rant like the late winter's hail!
Let's redefine the word "beautiful"

BEWARE!
Khyati Jul 2020
Devilish are her acts, wicked are her deeds.
Even the darkness takes over the moon, as she walks on the streets.

Sweetie, she's a storm, don't come her way
This is how my mirror, describes me, every single day!

The proposal.
Khyati Jul 2020
I'll play the cold night
Will you be my moon?
Even when it doesn't rain,
Oh my darling flower,
Would you still bloom?
Will you?

Warrior!
Khyati Jul 2020
The inscrutable, immense pain,
The benumbed battles inside her head.
No one would ever know,
The agonising, tormented thoughts she fed.

Tripping over the mirage of happiness,
While her soul lying in the desert of pain.
She fought, she lost, she screamed and cried.
Only to have her efforts in vain.

Hands cold as ice, drippin' off blood,
Barred by her own thoughts as a prisoner.
Even tears wailed and screeched for salvation
From the deeply cluttered soul of hers.

She was broken, she was shattered,
Yet they called her a mess.
But she was the real warrior,
who now lies  peacefully on her death bed.
#pain #intense #sad #dark #death #tears
Khyati Jul 2020
Hey, could you go the other way?
The work is still in progress!
You shattered me, sweetheart. Now it's time that i reassemble myself!
Jul 2020 · 126
The End.
Khyati Jul 2020
A day will come,
I'll lie in peace ,wearing that smile.
The  tears will be yours,
But the casket will be all mine!

It Hurts!
Khyati Jul 2020
My tears ink down the story,
of a deafening loud silence I hold.
Darling, its my art which speaks to you,
'bout the pain my soul withholds!

Beyond Repair!
Khyati Jul 2020
Your words smashed me, honey
I m shattered into pieces already
I warned you "handle me with care"
Yet you never listened,
And now my soul is beyond repair!

My Wishlist!
Khyati Jul 2020
i wish i never ran out of words
i wish my emotions found a better way out rather than expressing themselves in tears
i wish i knew how to fight those toxic battles
i wish i knew how to swim the ocean of failures
i wish i didn't feel tormented all through
i just wish i could get anaesthetic to all the pain they put me into!
Jul 2020 · 61
Moods!

Angry few minutes ago

Thank you attic
For giving me room to cry
Thank you attic
For always being there by my side
Thank you attic
For containing those lethal emotions of mine
Thank you attic
For guarding a piece of me inside

Those walls you have
made me strong
and here i am, my friend
Fighting those odds all along!
Jul 2020 · 344
Getting ready be like..
Khyati Jul 2020
i'll gulp all my sorrows
i'll sleep all my worries
i'll wipe all my tears
And wear that fake smile on.

oh! hey, guess what!
I got the "society's" membership now!
