Roller Coaster

Life is like a roller coaster

With ups and downs and turns,

First times are always shocking

But, by the second time you learn.

Life is like a roller coaster

With ins and outs and drops,

No matter how horrible it may get

It always rolls back to the top.

Life is like a roller coaster

It whips you side to side,

But when you get your balance

It makes it quite a ride.

Life is like a roller coaster

It’s scary, yet, it's fun,

With friends and family in your seat

It makes it worth the run.

Life is like a roller coaster

Once you’re on, you can’t get off until it stops,

Even if you’re not satisfied,

You make the best of what you’ve got.

Life is like a roller coaster

You must grip the bar and hold on tight,

Even when you are wearing thin,

You get through it with all your might.

Life is like a roller coaster

A leisurely ride that you must take,

Even though it is built to last,

At times it sure does break.

Life is like a roller coaster

A rush, a struggle, a high,

It moves so quickly and before you know it,

Time has flown right by.
