lyrics

My name is Mina, I'm five years old. We begun our journey two months ago
from Hamas in Syria. My mother hugged my very tight, throughout the entire
journey she wouldn't let me go. Sometimes we walked sometimes we got on
crowded busses and dusty trucks. The roads were bumpy but my mom never
let me out of her arms. In the crowd people were constantly talking about
something. On the bus some of them were crying, i ended up crying too.
My father was killed in Hamas, I don't know why they killed him. My mother
cried a lot and i cried too. Our journey was very long, at some point on
the road they killed two kids and an old man. The men dug graves on the side
of the road. The kid's graves were small. Their mothers hugged the graves
and cried, they didn't want to come with us but the men pulled them away.
We finally arrived at some place, everyone was a little happier.
Some men said that during the night when it's dark we will go to the shore
and get on a boat. "You can't come" they said to my mother. My mother begged
them, she then pulled out of her chest three bracelets and gave them to the men.
"OK you can come they said". With us was a woman named Layla. "What is the sea?"
i asked her. "It's something with a lot of water, no matter how much you drink
it never ends. Even if the entire village drinks it will never end." she said.
We don't have a sea in our village. I've never seen the sea in my life, neither
had my mother. When we got to the shore in the pitch black we still couldn't
see the sea.
