THE DEVIL YOU KNOW

TEAH

I met the devil the other night
I was shocked and a tad disturbed
He didn't look like I thought he would 
But it didn't matter 
I wasn't perturbed

He didn't look scary or evil
And he didn't shoot flames of fire
His clothes weren't scruffy and dirty
I was actually quite impressed 
With his choice of attire 

Believe it or not 
He was a handsome guy
There's something I thought I'd not say 
But if he wasn't 
This whole scenario
Would completely go astray

He had jet black hair
And menacing dark eyes 
I wanna say that were black
Or maybe they weren't
I could be wrong
Maybe it was just a disguise

He was very tall
I'm guessing about 6 foot 4
With a ript and slender body 
I'd not been told the truth
I'd had a completely wrong impression
Of him before 

He had the deepest voice
I think I've ever heard
It was very low and sexy
To say that it was devil-like
Would be totally wrong and absurd

He has a sence of humour 
Something else I wasn't told 
His smile could warm the cockles 
Off every living soul

And therein lies the word 
That I've been searching for
To make my poem complete
Now I know why he's on earth 
He is here for my soul to compete

    Very introspective, makes me think of the way the devil can be enticing and intriguing
