Pink Cloud

Pink cloud ride ending
Feeling rather shaken
From emotional turbulence 
coming down
Time to set foot on the ground
Good news is the ride has stopped
Bad news is the ride has stopped
Going from one extreme to the other
Sick of motion
Longing for two feet to be planted
Firmly on the ground
Learning to walk again
This time without a tangible crutch
Believing I am powerless but believing in Power
Letting go of what made me high
And kept me low
Reaching instead for a Power Greater than myself
One that can actually help
