Life is a roller coaster ride
with no rail to hold it on track
The ups and downs take
my breath away
Holding on can be
exhausting
Elation followed by
despair…
Finding someone
you care about
that doesn’t disappoint
is futile
It’s inevitable
your stomach will feel
empty
and your heart
confused
Not reacting to those
reactions
allowing the story to unfold
is difficult
but to jump in and write
the ending
without allowing the
roller coaster ride
to stop and let you off
is like jumping from the
Empire State Building
with an open umbrella
instead of a parachute.
