Roller Coaster

By Shoma

Riding high on happy memories, we wonder how time flies..

Painful past haunting can be quite daunting..

Power play between mind and heart does play a huge part,

Who wins after all is quite a close call..

Can I exercise control or dive into a deep sinkhole?

Why does joy evade me when I want it to just be?

My inner child screams for protection thriving for self reflection..

Do I place trust or let my life rust?

Difficult to find answer although I try harder

What do I do? Is it a crime to share woe?
