I am a tide
I Rise then fall
A swing
Going back and forth
I am a teeter totter
Up and down
A carousel
Going round and round
I am an elevator
Reaching the sky
A sky diver
Falling from up high
I am a roller coaster
Going upside down
A pendulum
Swinging left to right
I am my emotions
Bouncing around
Going up high
Then falling fast to the ground
I am the seasons
Hot then cold
A traffic light
Stop then go
When will it end?
These constant storms
When will I be still?
Silence after the storm
