Sometimes It Glitters
Sometimes it glitters, but often not;
May be cold, or may be hot!
Ever changing though the eye can't measure,
Concealed within may be many treasures.
Some find safety beneath its gate,
While some may die beneath its weight!
Old and broken, it brings forth life.

I wonder if this would fall under duplicates? The wording isn't exactly the same, but the premise and answer are.
