Roller Coaster Love

sometimes your love's like a crazy roller coaster,
like frenzied beans in a hot coffee roaster.
I dodge,
and I duck
like a scared hockey puck,
avoiding your stick,
and you're slap-shotting ways.
and then,
I slip in a flower,
a caress,
and a kiss,
wrap myself around you,
like a vine on a tree,
such heavenly bliss,
as your branches surround me,
take me in,
and astound me.
sometimes your love's like a star in the sky,
it puts wings on my heart,
and together we fly,
together we die.
