The Ship

Awaking to a menacing miserable morning knowing it could get worse, as I remind myself of the fear filling my hurt heart knowing I’m leaving my family behind.

The memories I had went away as the ship came closer and closer the less time I have so enjoying myself in the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean I have to say goodbye.

Walking good, walking good –words echoing in my mind like a ghost haunting me-but never fear. Water ringing the sounds of happiness is all ways there in your heart.

As voices rise and fall ,laughter fills the air as melodic songs echo through the soul of our loved ones, screeches of the seagulls constructed of laughter follows us.

Baby blue water dripping off the boat reminding me of my families tears whilst the palm trees wave goodbye to me.my eyes fill with salty tears as my dog tries to swim after my unreachable sadness of which he hears.

Squished,squashed ,huddled together, people all around, packed like sandwiches in a lunch box!

Journeys are all ways terrifying they say but especially when it’s for life-but never fear of the words of others.

Softly saying to myself there won’t be any consequences…

We started to go further and further away from my home land and moving to England was a struggle to understand as a child…there was no turning back from here.
