Analysis of Other's Fear
I hide in the shadow
of other's fear,
that the voice may go away
And then left
inside an orphan's silence,
to recount every wordless day
To walk a path
that other’s break,
beneath a dark and gloomy sky
Crying those tears
by other's made,
as my pen has now gone dry
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
