Analysis of Staying Silent
Someone, not a stranger
But as a stranger
Yes; indeed,
It hides
The truth of the heart
Since it chats and talks
With everyone
As a Fabulous and Brave
However,
It stays silent with me
For others
It can be a vanity
But for me is true love,
It will speak one day
To hold and embrace me
For the entire life journey.
