THE RIDE

at times,
she fills my mind with delectation,
fluttering in and about,
lightly touching sensory nodes, 
disspelling my vexations.  
i suppose that one would say, 
looking at it from afar ,
that i was in love,
or minimally , infatuated.
but the truth is, i am in crisis.
the feelings that are jostled about,
on the roller coaster I am on,
loving someone who has used
the rubber end of a pencil on me.
I hang on in fear
hoping for the ride to end,
hoping that it never stops.
