Drugged

Broken heart,
It lays on the floor
walked on it with your dirty feet
It turned to ash
Flew in the wind of melancholy
Tell me how to love
Tell me how to not feel so much
Tell me, that you love me
Even if it's a lie
Cuz I have no heart
To feel the pain
I have no tears to spend
My heart is dead
My soul is lost
Don't know, who I am
My breath stabs me in the back
Atleast now, there's nothing to lose
I can start over
Every stranger's entitlement
To break my heart again

-Aditi Shetty

Delirium

Don't mind the people that don't matter
For those who matter, don't mind
And those who mind, don't matter
Mind over matter, you see
Too much matter make your mind mind?
Or minding make your matter matter?
Choose or lose,
Abstain the snooze,
Do you peruse,
My sly ruse?

-Aditi Shetty.

Cheesy-pleezy

You won't connect with her heart
Beacuse you don't see how it endures
Through the shattered pieces of her soul
That has been broken by those who see her as ordinary
The scars that you see on her face,
they scare you
and you push aside,
Her gentle, cold palm that touches your face
How will you fall in love?
with her mind
When all you see
Are the bruises on her skin
That mighty heart is waiting,
For you
Close your eyes
And feel her soul intertwine into yours
Take her hand
Don't let go
And let her know
That the universe looks small in front of her heart
feel your own heart
when her breadth touches your eyelashes
Like sunshine to the trees
Like cold breeze on a warm summer
She isn't something you want
She's something you need,
Like oxygen, or hope
worth living for
Tell her your heart stops
When her eyes meet yours
Because in that moment
You become one
Until eternity. 

-Aditi Shetty

Lost

How do I find myself?
When I don't know where to look

How do I feel the world?
When I burn from within, losing sensation

How do I love another ?
When my heart is robbed by the steadfast

What do I see?
When my eyes are delusioned by pretence

How do I, live then?
When my heart stops beating with every breath I take.

-Aditi Shetty

Virtue

Get- give

Learn- teach

Achieve- sacrifice

Commit- adjust

When will we begin to place ourselves first?

When we understand that true joy emanates from the intangible

What is given could also be created within

Why do we exhaust our kindness for those who merely don't matter

Why are we consumed by the thoughts of not receiving the love we must simply create for ourselves

Reciprocation is a two way street

If you're not met half way, you might as well walk by yourself

wander alone, find yourself by exploring what's on the outside

Reflect on how you perceive,  instead of setting an idle gaze

Change is unprecedented, inevitable;
Subconscious of a sort

Instead of seeking
Let go
And let the universe surprise!

-Aditi Shetty

Inflict

We give up on love for a reason

We don't need to be exhausted and consumed by the heaviness of a broken heart

We don't need to feel heartbreak to know what true love is

love should come easy, leaving us exalted

love is purely benevolent, but we choose to perceive it as dichotomous

love doesn't have any negatives, those negatives that we fallaciously imbibe in our thoughts

Life is what we make it, and the universe never fails to provide

Instead of running behind love,

 
Cease! And cherish the moments that you ignore effortlessly

Why comprehend the ironically undefinable love?

Why can't we let love, just be?

-Aditi Shetty

Will

Eyes kill
Smiles tease
Hearts cry
Minds in delirium
The odysseys of walking corpses
Dire, dead, numb
Awaiting the precarious
Behaving thick skinned
Frivolous, beyond limit
The universe admonished,
"Eureka! Human extinction"
Salvation of abundance unveiled,
Minds present
Hearts cherish
Smiles converse
Eyes glisten
Mankind revived.

-Aditi Shetty.
