I Need a Cataclysm

My most pressing fear
is that tomorrow will be the same
as the day that preceded it.
That little will change in the
broad scheme of things,
that life will be average.
I need a cataclysm,
a rift, a devide in the status
quo. A shift in power from the
torments of my fears to those of
my ambitions.
It is so easy to remain scared,
to sacrifice so much just to stay
in place.
The difficulty is in sacrificing
in search of movement, to give
all that you have just so for a
moment you can see your life in a way
that makes you scared for the
right reasons.
I need a cataclysm,
to have the next day be different
from the day to proceeded it.

I need warmth
I need fire
I need to burn.
