Being in love with you
Was like a roller coaster
ride
Exhilarating and
stomach churning
But not in a good way
Not in that happy
waving your arms in the air
Screaming with delight
kind of way
No not your roller
coaster
Oh there was exhilaration
You took me to dizzy heights
When you really took
my breath away
When I thought life
didn’t get any better than that
Like walking through
fields of flowers in the sunshine
Or hand in hand along
an empty beach
Declarations of love
and promises for the future
Making me feel I was
the most special person in the world
Then without warning
came the stomach churning
That headlong rush
into darkness
Cast down into a trough
of despair and bitterness
Jealousy and
accusations
Venomous verbal tirades
and volleys of flying fists
Churning my stomach
and breaking my bones
Being in love with you
Was like the roller
coaster ride from hell
So I got off and
walked away
And I will never ride
with you again
Your declarations of
love and promises for the future
Are just empty words
Drowned out by your
venomous tirades
Thinking of you may
still churn my stomach
But you will break my
bones no more
I got off your roller
coaster broken and battered
But with my spirit in
tact
