Roller Coaster Ride

poem by: Nemo Nemees
Written on Feb 21, 2019

 ”Im at the peak of the roller coaster /
and who knows when we are going to plummet down. /
Down into the abyss again. /
 You would think these coasters are fun./ 
 But for me, they are terrifying./
For me, they are not an amusement/
 I am afraid of the/ unknown/
 and when I ride this coaster I cannot open my eyes./
I cannot see the very near future. /
I don't know what's going to happen next./
 I don't know if I am going to fall, or rise even higher. /
I don't know if i'm going upside down ,/
or if I'm staying right side up./
 I don't know if i'm at the end, or just the beginning./
 I'm riding this roller coaster, and I just want it to stop./
 I cannot do this./
 I cannot be tossed around like a rag doll./ But I cannot stop this coaster/
Without the  disappointment of others./
 So I stay on. It's a torture to me, /
but only to me it seems./
 I have to push through this unending fear. /
I have to push through this ride until the end of my time./
For this rides name,/
 is life."

Your eyes change color as your god intended. Your smile glows as if angels reflected their light off. Your home stenches of bibles, And my burned skin. Your bedroom holds fires of wanted demons. The magic cards express ... Read more
