Amusement Parks

I was never a fan of amusement parks

So it's funny that I fell for you of all people

You were like

An amusement park

Or more specifically

All the rides you can find at those amusement parks

A roller coaster

Something I despise

But you?

I never despised you

You made my stomach flip and turn

My heart plummet

But in the end

You were pure exhilaration

You took my breath away

Pure excitement

Was how I felt

Around you

But I should have known at the start

Amusement parks are day trips

Something that lasts for only a short while

I should have known

You were like an amusement park

Even if I liked you more

Than a roller coaster ride

You were only for a short period of time

I should have known

You wouldn't last

I wish it could've worked

But like amusement parks

I have to eventually go home
