All In the Balance

What’s good without bad
          Sympathy for the devil 
             Will never feel love

         What’s light without dark 
        Empathy for the blackness 
              It’s misunderstood 

             Cannot see heaven 
        Must be different than hell
               Opposites attract 

       Some think they’re the judge 
      Problem is we’re mere mortals
           And just passing through

Likewise David People who love to dish it but can't take it back And have the audacity to judge them back and best be wearing a crash helmet

Will read it now was just replying or commenting on your other poem . The only guarantees in life which we have no choice over are death and taxes
