The Gamble - By Ink

A shadow crept around me
It was darkly fierce, I thought it couldn't be
I saw him then...the darkest of men
As he let his gaze devour me
With hair as black as night
His fiery eyes a blazing light
He forced surrender with his haunting smile
I felt an urgent need to stay with him a while
And so I grasped my only chance to dance the lovers dance
I jumped the fence and took a chance at highest cost
Now I'm doomed, for I've gambled with the devil...and I have lost.
