Unlimited Time

   She was a beautiful woman she was
So vein, she didn’t want to grow old
More importantly she didn’t want to die
So to the Devil her soul she sold

The deal was for her, time would stand still
She gets to keep her beauty for eternity
In blood she signed on the dotted line
And a life of hell was a certainty

Time would still pass for everyone around
Her and loved ones would die
A thousand years and a thousand lover’s
And millions of tears she would cry

A catch twenty two, to love or not to love
Her world was torn apart
Either decision still left her
With an ultimately broken heart

The end of days would come and she
Would walk the Earth alone
She’s still as young and beautiful as she was
Before and the Devil laughs on his throne

As she walks and cries she hears the
Echoes of Hell’s Bell’s as they chime
All the while regretting her wish
For unlimited time
