Emotional Roller Coaster

I’m riding high, 24– 7,
At times I’m in Hell, at times I’m in Heaven.
I took her picture and put it up on a Poster.
Now my love is trapped on the emotional roller coaster.

Some days I roll up, some days I roll down.
Some days I can smile, but too often I frown.
The blood gushes up to my head in each incline.
Then rushes back to my stomach with the sadness in my mind.

One day I feel glad and as Happy as can be.
The next day I’m sad and can find no true glee.
I fly high on my faith then plummet down in despair.
But when I think of her face, I begin to believe she cares.

You love it; you hate it, these twists and these bends.
You just can’t get off this until it comes to an end.
This antagonizing guilt seems to be all the roar.
I don’t want to ride on this love coaster anymore.

Love or Hate - Ambivalence- Despair or Joy:
These emotions make “real” roller-coaster fears
seem more like a child’s play-toy.

If each one could sustain their own Peace from within,
This emotional roller coaster ride would never begin.
