Tears reflect
on every surface,
reminding me that I am sad.
The ride was fun,
terrifying, and exhausting.
A reminder again
that nothing lasts.

Memories remain
of a time of being needed, wanted, and enjoyed.

Tears reflect
on every surface,
reminding me that I was happy.
The ride is over,
ended, and done.
A reminder again
that happiness is lies.

Memories remain
the only friends to hear my cries.
