In life's intricate dance, pleasure and pain,
Two sides of a coin, intertwined refrain.
Pleasure, a whisper, a soft, gentle sigh,
While pain, a tempest, a storm in the sky.

Pleasure, like sunlight, warms the soul,
In moments of bliss, we feel whole.
Yet pain, like shadows, darkens the way,
Teaching us lessons, come what may.

In pleasure, we soar, free as a bird,
In pain, we stumble, our vision blurred.
But both are companions on life's winding road,
Shaping our journey, as stories unfold.

For pleasure without pain is but shallow delight,
And pain without pleasure, a never-ending night.
Together they weave the fabric of life's domain,
Pleasure and pain, intertwined, they remain.
