There I was, standing on the last boat to Turkey. My heart was aching because I knew that this could be the last time I ever saw my family ever again. It was so hard trying not to cry, I could barely keep it in. I was so scared I could ’ve jump ed off the boat and swam back home. I had never actually given much thought to how I would die and I think fighting till death is a pretty sad way. As a tear rolled down my cheek I could feel the pain already. I closed my eyes and saw only my family and then nothing! As I jumped I felt an instant chill as I touched the water. I did not feel welcome as I could smell burning shells and smoke. Bullets were flying everywhere and all I could think was if everyone was ok? But half of them weren’t, then I turned and I noticed I was shot. All I could feel was coldness! It really stinks here. There are dead bodies all over the place, I haven’t had a wash in a few days and neither has anyone else. I really miss my family. I wish I was with them snuggled up in my fluffy blanket sitting in front of the fireplace. But NO! I am here nowhere near my family! Today we had a swim at the beach. How good it felt. The freezing cold water against my skin was so nice, until it got to o cold. So I lay out in the sun. Right Just as I laid my head against the soft sand I had a flashback of when I was at the beach with my family. Everything felt ok now! It is night, Pitch black! I can barely see. I am tossing and turning. I can’t sleep, it’s so cold and everyone is snoring very loudly! I don’t want to sleep because I am too afraid of having bad dreams like all the others. I know they’re only dreams but they still scare me. I think their called nightmares. Today was kind of like a free day. We didn’t have to do much today .We just lazied around. I have been very busy and have had NO time to write but I am now. Today is my birthday, YAYY! Happy Birthday me! “NOT!” I want to go home! I have been here for a year now and it feels like way more. It feels like I have been here for like my whole Life! I miss my family so very much! I can’t wait till I see them again! That is if I stay alive that long? **By Khaleia Aneti Martin**
