Like Riding A Roller Coaster Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Replacing sadness and sorrow set upon me in life,
instead, finding solace and peace through writing
and music.

Only two things keep me hanging on in this empty
and lonely life, so intently being mired in the
past, yet music and writing bring me out of myself.

Difficult paths, twisting and winding suddenly in
front of me, never letting me get a hold on this
life at all.

Like riding a roller coaster, never having any rest
nor peace as it goes up and down, around the circum-
ference of my entire life.
