I must leave now.
My community, my people,
my family, my wealth,
the status that I have earned
through decades of service
I leave all of this
behind.
I go to join the millions the refugees
in Sudan
Would you go to paradise
If it meant
knowing
no one?
Would you give up
everything
You had ever
known?
Please Remember
your country
Remember us
Your people
We entered a plane,
First from Khartoum
Then Athens
And from there,
Amerikha
And there
A New Life
When we arrived,
My father had told us
Tewolda and Salamawi,
Get your shoes on.
We need to Adventure
Outside
In our new home
