An Angel or a Devil?

A man was let down by his girlfriend when he discovered that she did not read his love poem he had sent her on the occasion of the Valentine Day
We should know that all valentine day letters and messages do not go as smoothly as we usually portray in our poetry. Though it happens so rarely, there are some valentine defaulters. I try to capture the feelings of such a man who closed himself inside a room to release his anger alone and upon himself as in the presence of the girl he can not talk this way because he still loves her.

You cleaned my valentine poem
With your mouth and threw it away
Was it written on a tissue paper?
An angel you look in the face
But inside you a devil is trapped
Your words shine as brightly as a sunny day
But your heart is as dark as a moonless night
You appeared to me like a rain in the horizon
Giving me the hope that my thirst shall be quenched
But you are no better than a mist on a morning grass

NB. He ends the story with a bang on the table and heads towards the refrigerator to retrieve a favorite drink

This reminds me of the Somali folktale of the king with the donkey's ears. The king used to cover his head and ears. His barber knew about his ears, but the king told him that he would get killed if he disclosed it to anyone. The barber used the same technique as that of Abdinoor by going to a lonely place and saying something bad about the king's ears. Waxaad qarsatid way ku qarsadaan.

This is realistic. When someone you love ignores your message regardless of how much time and wisdom you invest in it.

Thank you Abdinoor for this heartbreaking one.

They very often sadly do not, but I guess we all write them anyway.

I have enjoyed the art and contents truly poetized in "An Angel or a Devil?".

In admiration,

It is so sad when someone is not what they seem. This poem describes that disappointment so well. A hope that vanishes.

He was skilled in recognizing even devils can appear as angels of light. Great poem.
