THE COMFORT ZONE

I've never been one to walk on the edge,
To take the great challenge,
To live on a dare.
I leave it to others to bunji
Or dive from a plane never knowing if
My chute will open,
Facing the danger knowingly unaware.

I admire those who have captured the nerve
To explore the unknown,
The uncharted seas;
Thumbing their noses at dangerous waters,
Racing so fast that the world is a blur;
Having the gall to do just as they please.

Living each moment spurred by adrenaline,
They face the challenges,
They walk alone.
The rest of us watch and vicariously dwell
Far form the danger of their man-made Hell...
Safe in the arms of our comfort zone.
