I could not wait to ride it,
Eversince I can remember, I have
always wanted to be on it.
But I was too young and a little
afraid then.
I had to wait and work hard.
And then before I knew it,
I was ready.
The wait was long and I
persevered.
After all, it has been all
I have ever wanted.
I stepped up and was welcomed
by a warm cocoon.
I held on and braced myself
for the ride.
And what a ride it was!
Only, when I stepped down,
I realized it wasn’t really how I
thought it would be.
There was no fulfilment, no contentment.
Now, I can’t even remember why I
wanted to be on it.
