Sometimes people's biggest fears,
are not themselves,
it's being judged by others from,
what people have said rather than done.
We are growing younger,
because of your dense behaviour,
you should have been silent,
instead of calling us a failure.
What you gain is satisfaction,
but, in us,
what is lost is compassion,
you are blind, you don't see,
you don't know, what is reality.
You don't speak,
because you are afraid,
sometimes peoples biggest fears,
are not themselves,
it's being judged by others from,
what people have said rather than done.
