Adventure

Living on the edge

Thriving for the thrill.

Fingers crossed, I pledged-

It's like an addictive pill.

Closer and closer I get,

Exposed to the danger.

Never a need to fret,

Only my soul to wager.

3rd degree burns from adrenaline

Taking the road less traveled by.

Adventure comes with the wind-

Sound forth a battle cry.

Secrets flowing in eel-shocked rivers

So dark and deep, I shiver.
