Suspense and fear
build inside me
The icy slope
is what I soon see
I wait for the rest
of my skiing group
For the moment when
I’ll be released from this coop
Of fear, excitement,
and curiousity
I’m told to take off
and I am free
All the worries
fade away
All that matters
is today
This is a steep, fast,
wild ride
I’m free to release
all the troubles inside
My spirits soar
they fly with the breeze
I hold my breath
but I’m soon at ease
My heart falls
when I reach the bend
I swerve around it
and just like that, it’s the end
But I can experience
the joy once more
I hop on the chairlift,
and prepare for what’s in store
