if you trip while running
you might break a leg
which is better than dying
or is it if you take off flying
before checking the landing gear
and touch down in a precarious future
something always thinks
if you crawl into yourself and keep quiet
you’ll remain unscathed
falling or crashing
frequently carves scars on skin
the road map of where one's been
play it too safe and your own soul
turns into the torturer
that plans your murder
it always starts
with slices of your heart
