Roller Coaster

To equate life to a roller coaster would be far too easy
It explains all the unexpected and yet nothing
There are ups and downs, twists and turns
But life is so much more than those mere things
Yet we find ourselves caught up in them
In those moments that peak in our memory
Let us not forget the time it takes to get there
Or the in betweens that seem unimportant...
Life is more than a roller coaster or the ultimate ride
It is everything we are, everything we see
Life can only be defined and made by oneself
And not made a explicable part of a simple metaphor.
