Life Without Fear

An intense protest poem by Fransesco about fear and freedom – exclusively for Different Truths.

How far
you have travelled my life
how many experiences
in the middle of every season
you have navigated.
So strong your arms
on the face of the truth
forced to die
when wounds
they often hit.
Life without fear
of love and poetry
shed the tears
singing beauty
you still breathe freedom.
