Faltering

I falter-

The delicate, fine
thread to walk
between pensive
and madness

It is good to go deep
to the realms in which we sleep
and contemplate
subconscious
reason
and
life

Weave
back
and
forth

death
underneath
gone too deep
an inescapable truth
we are doomed to complete
livid and crazed
cycles of pain
ashamed

The fiber of knowledge
intoxicates
can make you insane.

It is good to think
but when you've gone to far
you lose your humanity
and forget who you are

leaving
the simplicity behind you
the sun
the reasons
and purpose that can come to
define you

Go deeper
be not afraid
think of the grandeur
imagine
exist
but do not
drown
yourself in your thoughts
go far beyond lost
obsess
and inflict
the most wicked
self loathing pain.
