A Perfect Waste of Time

A river
A ride
A death
A night
A hopeful glance
A disappointing stair
Am I helping you out?
Or just wasting my time?

A cut
A drop
A bandage
A scar
A sorrowful tear
A torn tissue
Am I there for you?
Or am I in the way?

A flower
A stone
A grave
A prayer
A deep sigh
A helpless cry
Am I just in time?
Or am I too late?

But if I level out the roller coaster to a walk, the highs won't be as wonderful. And yes, the lows will be more terrible.... But it's a trade-off.

Boring averageness with no pains, yet no great joys either...

Or an exciting rocket with great joys and great pains.

Is it worth those great pains for the greay joys?

I will think about that.
