In torus there exists simple non-closed geodesic. One example is take the irrational slope curves in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and project it down to torus. Is this thing can happen in closed hyperbolic surface i.e.
Does there exists a simple non-closed geodesic in a closed (i.e. compact without boundary) hyperbolic surface?
Let's call $\Sigma$ a closed hyperbolic surface. Each free homotopy class of curves on a hyperbolic surface has exactly one geodesic representative. Conversely, a closed geodesic gives a free homotopy class. Thus (up to basepoint) there is a bijective correspondence $$\bigg\{ \mbox{ closed geodesics }\bigg\} \longleftrightarrow \pi_1(\Sigma).$$
Since $\pi_1(\Sigma)$ is finitely generated, it is a countable set. In particular, it lifts to a countable set of geodesics in $\mathbb{H}^2$. Any and every geodesic in $\Sigma$ can be obtained by pushing a geodesic of $\mathbb{H}^2$ forward under the covering map, so the set of all geodesics of $\Sigma$ lifts to the set of geodesics of $\mathbb{H}^2$, which is uncountable. So there are many more open geodesics than closed geodesics on $\Sigma$.
Here's a simple example on a non-closed hyperbolic cylinder that illustrates the phenomenon. Let $\Sigma = \mathbb{H}^2/\mathbb{Z}$, where the $\mathbb{Z}$ action is given by $z\mapsto \lambda z$, for some $\lambda > 1$. The single closed geodesic is the image (under quotient) of the $y$-axis. Take any other geodesic which limits to $0$ and push it down under the covering map; it will spiral in from one side of the cylinder and limit to the closed geodesic.
