Letting Go

My moods are complicated For complex am I Never know which way the rollercoaster is going Or, if I want to catch a ride. Some days are better than yesterday And, even the day before There are times there is no seatbelt I don’t care, I just stare into the night air Emotions circling around me I cannot catch one to let it in Anxiety beats the best of them It usually wins Sadness surrounds me now The past is my present Ever engulfing footage Running through my mind Soon I will have to let go Hopefully, the sun comes out And, it shines upon my face Warm breezes take over me, this is my new place For these will be happy times The present begins anew No rollercoaster for which I ride I know which emotions to choose A smile is across my face, now I found some peace and a little grace. © Holly P.
