Bouncing Wrecking Ball

Life bounces me like a ping pong ball
up and down I journey and traverse
terror and ecstasy I feel with every fall
sometimes peering deep into the abyss

I spin in hurricanes when fate gets cruel
holding on, riding on the tail of destiny
hoping to survive each painful stumble
when the heart breaks missing soul

with strength I find solace and utmost peace
when I accept my fate with grace
swaying back and forth between joy and sorrow
always looking with hope for tomorrow

shall I then quit this life in relief
wondering who shall mourn me when I leave
