At breakneck speeds
Escaping ourselves
In distress
Avoiding voids
Breaking silences
Fearing motionlessness
Afraid to be alone
With our feelings
With what’s inside
Deep within
Afraid it might engulf us
Implode on us
Realizing we’ve lived a lie
Afraid to face the unknown
To fall into that abyss
As ominous as
The fear of finding
A tinsel of Godliness
