Analysis of Falsehoods You Endear



My world is different, my world is foreign,
  your words do then remind

My vision captive, my soul unpledged,
  the music solely mine

Never lonely, but then alone,
  my solitude you fear

As strangers swarm around your doubt,
  whose falsehoods you endear

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2017)
