Without a doubt, humans are always fleeing from their fears. They flee from the fear they themselves create and blames the fear instead.
Nicely described :]

I'd hate to be such a person, though I've known people described as in this poem.

The poem itself gives conflicting feelings and made me analyze myself.

Loved the verses about the sea :)

the opening is incredibly lyrical, I like the first 8 lines the best.
