SPU Poetry Contest #1: Life's ride

Hey guys this is my entry for the https://steemit.com/contest/@poetrybyjeremy/spu-poetry-contest-1-announcement contest run by the great people at #poetsunited. I've written this poem based on @lymepoet 's https://steemit.com/poetry/@lymepoet/lost-poem . I'm still very ill from this flu that is starting to seem endless, but nevermind, here I go:



What is this ?
Another week gone by ?
Through every low

and every high ?

Can I have a week,
just normal ?
Not start off in heaven
and end in hell ?
Or is this eternal ?

The rollercoaster of life,
never stopping.
Through joy and strife,
always rolling.

I've seen heaven
and I've seen hell.
Sadly, I'm stuck in this seat,
so finely tucked in..

I'll see it again,
week after week.
Always moving,
but stuck in one place.

That was a nice take on the prompt. I love the way you expressed yourself as stuck in a rollercoaster seat - not moving - yet the rollercoaster is always going to hell and heaven. You are stuck in being powerless. Nicely done!

Thank you very much, you got that spot on :)
