Analysis of Out Of Time



Born to the same words as you,
  the feelings were my own

Language shared, intention spared,
  a vision fully grown

Our words converse, in separate verse,
  your prose unto my rhyme

To search that darkest hidden place,
  two footsteps out of time

(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2017)
