How we waste your time doing things we shouldn't have....

I have danced with the Devil

I was offered a gift
A extended hand
Stretched out fingers
From a familiar man
He appeared as a friend
When this all began....

He played a song that
Tickled my ears
For Years and Years
I longed to Hear....

How it would play
I would start to sing
Along with Dance
Among many things...

He would say
Just one more song
Its not that Long...

As He played
I grew more old
Soon the tune
Took its toll

I could feel my Life
Just spill away
All because I wanted
To hear the tune Play....
