Ick,
Uuugg,
Yuck.
Just hold on,
Take the ride.
It has some ups and some downs,
Twists and turns.
Your stomach will tighten
And then you will shout with delight.
Hold on.
This is life,
Full of glorious surprises
And all the rest.
It never slows down.
There is no rest.
This is life.
If you trust,
If you believe,
If you let go,
You will find the knot loosen,
The twists not so sharp,
The turns becoming gentle bends,
A rest in sight,
Euphoria within reach.
This is life.
