Life is like a Roller Coaster
With many twists and turns
Once you get on it
There is no chance of to return
And be bystander,
Who is looking from the side
You have a ticket
A ticket to ride.
And what a ride it is
Up and down
Round and round you go
Excited by the heights
And depressed by the lows
Screams of delight by some
As they reach the highest peak
Of this Roller Coaster
Others too terrified to speak
As it dips and dives about
You have to hold on tight
For fear of falling out
Gathering your thoughts
As it comes to a bend
Brace yourself, everyone,
You have to stay on until the end.
.....Lonely .....
In the end they decide im not what they want.
They become anothers memory that will come back to haunt.
Say you want me you really do
Then in the end im left feeling blue
Is there any love thats true
Why must i always be left behind
Sits heavy on my mind
Lost everytime i have tired.
In the end im the one that has cried
Love for others seem to come and go
And my lonely starts to show
When will i ever be someones one and only
Instead i sit here feeling so lonely.
Will ot always be this way.
Will i ever find the right words to say
To make someone want to stay
Will it always be
Lonely me.
thats all i seem to see
Maybe in some point and time
Ill come up with the right rhyme
Intill them ill see them walking out the door
Leaving my heart on the floor.
Arm in arm hearts ready. To soar
But all i do is fail
Doesnt do my heart so well
Seems love ,i will never find
Just memories left to remind
Lonely is the night
When no ones there to hold me tight.
Doesnt seem right
He hangs on
He isn't brash or bold
He hangs on
He does as he is told
He is very quiet, reserved and shy
That's why he hangs on tightly
Frightened he'll lose hold
Hold tight you said, as I was spread across your handlebars
Don’t go so fast I screamed, my smile was fixed just like a mask
Increasing speed I feared this ride could be my very last
Then swiftly we began to rise up in the skies amongst the stars
Whilst riding past the fullest moon upon his bike we saw ET
Come home he called, just follow me, a chance to meet my family
Hold tight you said, as I was spread across your handlebars

Hold tight relentlessly
'Till unconscious
Of self and all is God.
Miracle-less world
Of sin, strife and pain
Hold on to God
Peace, joy and rest
Praying, doing your best.
Hoping in God.
Give your heart and life
In Jesus forgiveness,
All in God.
Look to the Holy Spirit
Only He can free us
Clutch desperately to God!
Let us, Let us, Oh, let us hold tight
Let us hold tightly
Unto the hope, unto the hope
The hope without wavering never wavering, wavering
Wavering to the hope we affirm
For God, only God can be trusted
Only His trust to keep his promise.
You see only God, only God is hope
And only hope keeps his promises, Alleluia, Alleluia

Hebrews 10:23
When you are so far away
In mind, in life, in feeling, in being
So far away, too far to say
I am so alone, is anyone seeing
What I am? For I cannot
Robot
When you are so far away
Someone should hold your hand
But you cannot find a way
to ask, because you're numb, and
What are you, puppet?
Tired
So please reach out and take
My hand in yours, I am here
Please, hold on, for my sake
Feel my pain, feel my fear
Grab, and don't let go
No!

Hold tight these lips of mine
Keep still the secrets inside
How would I explain " If "
Ever my secret revealed
But then why shouldn't I
Why not shout it to the sun
Whisper it to the stars
A secret it would be no more
I tremble with the anticipation
Of holding you within these arms
Of sharing the quiet times together
Of tasting and savoring all of you
These eyes know well the pleasures
of your face
The mind wonders of what the eye
can not see
As you pass, my sense's fill with
the scent of your cologne
I ache to know your musk of
heated passions
To feel the warmth inside you
To touch your very soul
