Last night I saw an apparition.
Maybe I was hallucinating.
Or
Maybe it was real.
But do you realise, that both
the conditions are equally
horrifying & surreal.

-

As an apparition
you appeared,
numbing all
emotions;
words froze
refusing to
spill out.

-

He enters the house
with a devil's eye
Places his bag on the floor
like a devil's knife
Utters a unknown word
with a croaky voice
After that the whole place's silent
Not even a hint of a single noise
Then comes a voice from upstairs
He climbs up stairs with a dare
His eyes twitching for a prey
His coat darker than very grey
The door he opens with deft hands
Moves like a cheetah
Killing of a man....
Shattering then a glass breaks
A person finished, an empty face
But then he realized it was
One of his own
The old house's bliss, he's all alone

-

Anxiously he watched her change
Watched her change worlds
Peeping into the side of her ajar window
There she stood, bare bodied
Curves with cuts, dead and shut
Staring right back into his eyes
After changing form
From living to dead
From flesh to apparition, that levitates


His gaze fell upon her corpse below
That was the last to the world he was known

-

Atychiphobia

Shadows of desire feared the skin,
Of crevices hidden in pasts,
And closed rainy panes,
Breaking memories and unwriting letters,
Etched in vapours, that single apparition,
A following so desperate,
Rushing up the bones,
To fluttering moth lights,
Just by the heart,
Closing eyes, more darkness,
Seeking deep within in depths,
Ancient fear sleeps.

-

In the abyss of my heart
lie buried a part of you
which I have concealed within
a protective shell -
wrapped by the void of
plaqued shards and loneliness
which had threatened to
swallow me like the devious Scylla;
the tremors have been quietened
as the river of life flowed undaunted,
traversing the rocks with agile grace
to empty into the sea of eternity.
A faint quiver, releases an apparition,
a blurry sublimation followed ,
in my dream with cavernous gape;
curious inquiry ticked, "why now"?

-

Crooked Fear

Crooked shapes on wall
Darker by the day
Make me anxious
Every moment lesser
Than the one before
A fear of apparitions
Perhaps shadows.

-

Three D's of apparition - destination, determination and deliberation
Not only in magical world but if we talk about these three in Muggle world they can actually apparate you to your dreams and targets you set up in life...

-

Haunt your insecurities the way they haunt your priorities.

A night out is incomplete without a groupie. So they turned on the front camera, affixed the phone on a selfie stick and gathered together for a snap by a bank of The Ganges. They smiled and cheered their victory over fear, brimming with adventure, while She peeped from behind. That click recorded her abysmally, though her whimper was surpassed by their joy.
