I feel I'm on a roller coaster,
Especially these past few weeks.
One day I'm up, the next I'm down,
When balance is what I seek.
On one day I deal with the present,
Or the past I'm working through;
And then come my fears for the future,
Uncertainties old and new.
There are times my pain overwhelms me,
When drugs don't control the pain;
When it's all I can do to hold on
And face the pain which remains.
But also mixed in with the hard times
Are the small moments of joy.
Times I am blessed with hope and with peace
And with friends who I enjoy.
Life is comprised of both good and bad,
No matter what I go through;
Moments of laughter and joy and love,
Mixed with the old and the new.
