ascending higher and higher, cresting the peek of your wave

We understand, it's hard up there
and there is no escaping us,
so come down please,
settle the ocean,
find peace,
die.
I like this work. There are some grammatical errors. Should 'you can tread us' be written as 'you can tread on us'? I liked the line, 'falling away without sound'. As I feel it to be visual in written expression. 'reduced to a needle slicing at clouds' seems to be a little confusing, don't needles pierce? I think this is all the critique I have to offer.
