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)
