There it was standing there almost unapproachable yet enticing I neared it, hesitantly Still doubtful, I sat down and held on loosely at first As it began to move my heart began to race, my grip tightened slightly We began to move faster it was scarey it was exciting all the time wondering why I got on Then I became breathless at the anticipation of the next move it would make My grip now so tight, my hands hurt We turned a corner and the end looked near It slowed down, then jolted to a stop my grip still steadfast I waited for the ground to stop moving then stood up, still shakey As I walked away I smiled at the memory of the experience Turned back for one more look wondering if I would ever get back on
Reason for writing:
Many of us have gotten involved with someone we know we shouldn't have. But it's THOSE relationships that make us feel that we're alive, every bump, turn, and climb.
