Wake up

A beautiful town, a beautiful country

A blue sky

With green trees, colorful flowers

With lovely friends and family

For a 15-year-old girl like me

This is my amazing life

There is nothing better than that

Every day is a joy

It seemed as if sadness did not exist

Always has happiness and laughter

Always waiting for me

All those wonderful things are gone

In just one day

My homeland, my friends are all far from me

Being taken away on so many vehicles

To a place that I don’t even know

Everything is like a dream

What I have to do?

This is the reality I have to face

Confused, tired, scared, crying,…
