The outlaw and the angel

We're not so different,
just living the best we know how
heaven sent or hell bound.
Riding forward on steel horse or heavenly steed.
Fueled by light or gasoline.
Rarely belonging on this earth,
Merely finding out our worth.
Sunday seeking wings or burning them to dust,
Finding reason or adding to the rust.
Everyday striving to be better than ourselves,
through faith and poison from the shelves.
We just do the best and pay the toll.
Heavenly glow or darkened soul.
Love and faith in different seasons.
Similar pursuits for similar reasons.
