My Love Story to Devil



Tonight I was talking to the Devil,

I told him my story,

Sitting in the shadows, feeling oh so sorry.

Pouring out my heart, to the darkness deep,

Hoping for some solace, in the secrets that I keep.

 

Always searching for love, but I'm stuck in this abyss,

Not just a body's lust, I crave a deeper kiss.

Every time I open up, I end up feeling used,

Was it me, trusting blindly, feeling so confused?

Was it my fault for loving, giving all of me?

Now I'm left with mental scars, it's hard to see.

Every time I fall, they leave me in despair,

I'm just a human, wishing someone would care.

 

Will I ever feel the warmth of someone's embrace?

Or am I destined to be alone in this space?

I long for love, but it's always out of reach,

Will I ever find it, or is it just a speech?

 

I want to see tears fall for me, genuine and true,

Someone to put in effort, someone who'll pursue.

I dream of flowers, tokens of affection,

But it seems they're reserved for my grave's reflection.

Will I ever love again, or is it just a game?

Can I trust once more, or will it end the same?

I'm lost in this cycle, drowning in my pain,

Hoping for love, but it's all in vain.

 

Will I ever feel the warmth of someone's embrace?

Or am I destined to be alone in this space?

I long for love, but it's always out of reach,

Will I ever find it, or is it just a speech?

 

As I lay here contemplating, in the silence of the night,

I wonder if I'll ever find love, if it's worth the fight.

But until then, I'll keep on searching, through the darkness and the pain,

Hoping that one day, love will find me again.

Nostalgic Love Era

I love the Landphone, Phone Booth, Sms, Letter era, Where love was pure, its essence so clear. People valued emotions, not just the body's lust, A time when connections were deep, filled with trust. In Landphone's ring, my heart would dance, Awaiting your voice, a sweet romance. Phone Booths whispered secrets, stories untold, Love's mysteries shared, within their stronghold. Sms messages, brief but heartfelt, Words carefully chosen, like a work of art. Letters, handwritten with love's devotion, Expressions penned, capturing every emotion. Gone are those days, now a distant past, Technology advanced, relationships amassed. Yet, I yearn for that era, where love was the goal, Feelings cherished, filling every soul. The Landphone, Phone Booth, Sms, Letter's grace, An era of love, etched in time's embrace. Let's remember those moments, hold them dear, And honor the love we once held near. © NILOY SHOUVIC ROY

Silent Weeps In The Dark

Image
Dear Mom, How are you? I hope everything is fine at home. I am also good at my in-laws. Yes Mom, I'm able to pretend like everything is fine, just the way you taught me. However, sometimes it really hurts whenever my husband hits me with his leather belt in his drunken stupor. I use my make-up skills everyday just to hide all the scars he has given me. Mom, I know we are poor and we cannot manage the dowry anymore, I still hope somehow, someday you will save me. Mom, my heart aches even more whenever he verbally abuses me and my family. He even calls me a h*e!  Mom! I'm really sorry. I wish my skintone was lighter, then their demand for dowry wouldn't have been this much.  Mom, do you know that last night he and his mom burnt my left hand with a cigarette?  Whenever a relative comes to my in-laws house, I always try to put on a fake smile and show that I'm happy here. Still I don't know why, they ask me, "why do you look so thin?", " Are you ok? "

Lost in Kolkata

In the shadow of Kolkata's memories, We were good as strangers, life at ease. Through Princep Ghat and Rabindra Sarovar's grace, Our bond blossomed, time couldn't erase. Bunking classes for the thrill, Exploring streets, a friendship to fulfill. Hand in hand on Kolkata's roads we'd roam, A tale of friendship finding its home. But beneath the surface, a truth untold, A situationship, my heart's grip loosened, cold. I played the side character in your story, A lost ship without its sailor in the sea of worry. Now, in solitude, I wander and weep, Asking, "Why did you sow promises so deep?" A jolly guy turned lonely in the crowd, In the echoes of our laughter, silence is loud. If time could rewind, a wish profound, To be strangers again, our paths unbound. © Niloy Shouvic Roy
