Awful!
 

Ok, here I go again
The awful rollercoaster ride
Slidding down fast, like re-living the past
Heart jumping and pumping way to loud
Screaming in my head, no! no! no! not now!
Please, please let me get off this awful ride

I didn't buy the ticket
I wasn't standing in line
How did I get here this time?

Sweat forming on my brow
Afraid and scared, but still can't scream out loud
Please, please let me off this awful ride
Please, oh please let me find a place to hide.

Somewhere to bury my head in the sand
Some place safe, to leave all of this behind
Please let me off this awful rollercoaster ride

Permission to quote you
 

Sah-PCA I sent you a message but the system is not telling me if it really got sent. So here goes:
I would like to add your poem "Awful" to the comments at the end of chapter 48 of my on-line book, which is partly about Parkinson's.
I would say that you have a neurological condition that is not Parkinson's, but your poem is exactly what many of us feel when we are sinking from "On" to "Off" in Parkinson's.
This is the chapter - the comments are at the end:

You don't have to do this if you don't want, but your poem "Awful" is a direct hit. It says what a lot of us feel.
