The Devil’s Love
Always watching
Sending
protection and care
Destroying
obstacles
Getting
rid of the
unfaithful
liars of love
Eliminating
useless fools
of annoyance
Entering her dreams
every now and then
Embracing her in her sleep
while he whispers her
name into her ear and
tell her how much he
love her and she is
the only one in his
heart and mind
Yet he never once
appear before her
in reality
Clueless and went on with life
Life went the unexpected direction and she ponder why
Till the day he decide to show himself and everything comes to light
A shock of life. A terrible price. And the devil had found his one and only love

I really felt this. Good piece.
I have really enjoyed visiting your blog. It is so amazing with your creativity. I don’t want to look at mine now. It is boring. haha
Really good! I love the way the poem developed.
Yikes. The temptation aspect of love.
I always look forward to your posts, for the poetry but also for the visual aspects. Nicely done.

Interesting use of the Devil as protagonist.
Every one has a devil too inside us and all of us capable of loving.. Good one Riika.
Your poetry is gripping, tragic, timeless and mysterious!
that’s unique and lovely piece..
powerfully done.
Very great art work… the way you paintd the vase as well as the story with words and colored alphabets… I enjoyed the thought and the image that you portrayed.. Devils choice of love was right…?

another good one !!! interesting last lines
Wowwiiieezz..deliciously dark!! She waited and waited…only for a rude and unpleasant awakening! Phheeww
Gave me the chills! Felt like a movie!
Enjoyed it thoroughly, Riika… Still imagining how she must’ve felt on realizing…
Ah…a hell of a poem!
“They never told me he had blue eyes and wore blue jeans”…bad boy, bad to the bone. Why do good girls love those bad boys? Good write. Thank you. Gay @beachanny
I had to laugh at myself because I was trying to understand what words the red letters were spelling. I finally figured out that they were only red for the visual effect. LOL!
A devilishly-clever One Shot!
Oh yes XD~ haha =P Thank for visiting my friend=P
haunting, a love not “real” yet leaves an impression. Agree with moon, mesmerizing piece.
Both caught in the end. What a mesmerizing piece.
Thanks for sharing with One Shot

intriguing..love your form and use of color…i like the contradiction in the devils love…
Oh yes indeed contradiction but anything is possible ;D
Wow — nice job with the surprise ending.
Another mystical poem of love…well done.
Wow–such an intense love…but not in reality, ooh
great work
I love the paradox…devil is always associated with hate and darkness…but here, the devil actually loves, which seems to be a good thing…nicely done.
Cheers to you!
Yeah!
Devil do know how to love too if they want=P
“Destroying
obstacles”
…. arouses Ekajati for me.
Definitely not the devil though. Awesome write riika!
what a haunting love…
very beautiful story telling…
love the way you use colors to highlight words for attention or focus.
thanks for sharing.
