A balance of Heaven and Hell
Each tempting those who hang, solely by a thread.
A fiery love, a burning passion.
The sweetest sin, given to those who try not.
Yet are repaid so.
To a long hike, a fierce belief.
A life so strived for, but most fail to take the first step.
For no good deed goes unpunished.
