Life As We Know It Poem by Elizabeth Haasch

I am scared my friend because this is it.
When the ball drops or starts spinning again
When life as we know it can begin or end
They say it's the make it or break it
The wishing, wanting, hoping, or having
your truly happily ever after.

I don't want this rollercoaster to spin madly around
neither the music stop, nor I get off the ride
I want to live as if life weren't an option
as if money didn't matter and love
never broke.
I want to live as if the sun never set or rose
as if the moonlight in all its negativity was whole again
I want to live as if life with you will never end
