Death's Failure

The black cloaked figure took her hand
Told her that she was forever his friend
Next time they saw her she wasn't the same
She'd lapse into silences and mourn in shame.
She had promised to sell her soul
To Death himself; no small toll
Life denied her existence forevermore
Explaining that she had locked her own door.
"Life," she pleaded, "Take me back."
"You are no child of mine." Life stated the fact
"But you are mine," Death said with a grim smile
Feigning most of it, for he hadn't grinned in some while
"My life is my own," she declared
Life and Death didn't laugh, but merely stared
She laughed at them and dissipated
And that day an angel was created.

May I please borrow that pen? C'mon, I want to write ingeniously too!
Dark, psychotic, twisted ending, sharp flow---this has it all.
Keep writing or have the green pen turn pink,
