Everyone is safe only in their graves

I am inconsiderate
I am unfulfilled
Im involuntarily running up this hill
There is nothing for me on the other side
But there is something in me that i cannot hide
What i think comes to me
From the deepest sadness
What i feel comes up
From the breathing darkness
I am indecisive
There is no conviction
That can let me down
In this world of friction
There is nothing for me to be late to
To relate to
Engrained within my psyche is a red garden
This revolving madness keeps me awake at night
Everyone is safe only in their graves
And everything is formed
Within this endless maze
Of falsities and atrocities
The endless small windows
Each holding uniqueness
In the building of the world
Slow movement in quickness
Experience and express
Give and receive
Create and contemplate
Think and speak
Feel and know
Safe or harmful
Weak and insightful
Wise and fulfilled
Intelligently fooled
Love and forgive
Cry and release
Hold in and increase
Pressure to drop
There is no last stop
And the first never arrived
For it always hides
In the mists cool and heavy
In the grip of the tides
Accept and embrace
Laugh and invite
Reject and be free
Suspect but don’t flee
Walk adamantly onwards
On course through the horrors
That wait in vanity
But grip us in piety
Close up and be warm
Open and fly
Let in and be shy
Don’t hold on to someone who longs to be high
