Rollercoaster

You shoot your hands up as you prepare for the takeoff. With butterflies forming in the pit of your stomach; 3, 2, 1, and all that’s left in your place is a split second snapshot of the past. You accelerate with great speed into the unknown that is yet to come. As the cart begins to slow as you tread uphill, you begin to feel a sense of fear. But as quickly as it came, it disappears as you reach the top and look back on the place you were just a few moments before. Stuck in blissful loop, replaying in your head like a broken record. As you begin to make your way back downhill you forget your worries for just a moment. But soon, you slow to a still point, as a wave of disappointment overwhelms you. Longing for another rush.
