Torture

I have a passion burning inside of me.

It's always in the back of my mind.

It's always there in my dreams.

Every breath I take, it fills me

with desire. Every step I take

is one step closer to either extreme

hope and achievement or severe

disappointment. Every thought that

passes through my head is tied to it.

All the songs I hear, every note I sing.

Every word that escapes my lips is

spoken upon my dream. Every prayer

I say. Every night I spend lying awake

just thinking about how great my life

would be. How set I would be for the future.

How I am more than ready for this change.

I will do anything it takes. I will go anywhere

I must. To achieve my dreams I would go

to the ends of the Earth, the most extremes

of the universe. I look deep into my heart and

I can feel it beating with this burning desire

to act.
