I am here
While they are There
I wish I was There
I wish I was There to be with them
But I am still here
I am still here waiting on the day to come when I finally see them once more
I have been here for two weeks
Two weeks of fear
Two weeks of never knowing if you'll finally arrive There
But I am thankful for my fears
Because fearing is still a feeling
I see some who cannot fear any longer
For fear took them over
I fear because I know my fate
But also appreciate it, because my fate is There
Here the men starve, torture, and beat us
But I see the fear in there eyes
Fear of what my happen to them if they don't deliver us There
They have so many ways to deliver us
Yet the choose the slowest most painful ways
I sometimes wonder why they must do these things
I wonder what may happen to them of we didn't arrive There
If we were to escape
But I don't want to escape
For I have nothing to return to
Even so I don't want to be here
I used to have a friend here
But she too is There
She arrived quickly, unlike I will
Everyday I grow smaller
Everyday I'm reminded of where I am by the number on my arm
Everyday I lose myself a little more
I've seen children taken from their mothers
Siblings torn apart
But nothing is worse than someone losing themself
So my destination is close
I'm on the edge of the cliff
And once I fall I will finally be There
