He sold his soul to the devil!!



She stood zapped with a forlorn look
Thinking of his betrayal her heart shook

She had a gut feeling that she had known it
But she had always avoided that bit

Of the times he had raised his hand on her
The abuses so many which were  hard to bear

Man of his stature image not tarnished
At home he was a devil unleashed

A man with a split personality or bipolar
With every violent act became bolder

With every passing day his confidence grew
Only his interests were all that he knew

All he cared was only and only about himself
For no one else did he care, what else?

All he could think for others was just evil
As if he had sold his soul to the devil
