The Devil

I’ll make a deal he said

It won’t hurt you one bit he said

Just play a small game he said

If you loose then I choose what happens he said

If you win then you choose what happens he said

Sign this and you won’t be hurt he said

I lost at his game he said

Now you will forever serve me and please me he said

I turned to run but he caught me

No no sweetheart he said so sinisterly

You belong to me now

He laughed

I cried and cried

I had just sold myself to him

The devil
