Yes
Yes
I will go on this ride
cling to my safety harness
overcome my phobia of heights
ignore those screams from the colossus-
are they screams of terror, or screams of joy?
Yes
I will embrace the uncertainty
brace myself for every twisting turn
each stomach-dropping, breath-stopping
heartbeat of sheer acceleration exhilaration
as the tension mounts, she reaches for my hand
do I speak of riding a roller coaster or falling in love?
Yes
