Devil and Beauty



Immune to the charms
Thou the devil believed
Never would fall in ….(love)
Thou the devil resolved.

Came the beauty with fangs
Alas. Bitten was the devil
Before could he realize
Life alone was worth living for
He had bowed to the inevitable

Did he succeed in the battle
Is still left to be known
But one thing remains for sure
The search he has taken upon is eternal
Te road he is walking upon
Is the road to hell.
