I got the job I work at now.


               I smiled wide,

               thankful that there were people like Dave in this world.

               Kek barely made it from the militia.
               If he was but a second later to hide.

               They would have seen him.

               Someone came and put a bag over my head.
               I do not know who it is.

               They gagged me, tied me up, and carried me.

               After what seemed to be hours, they stopped and untied me.


               In the night, I was sure it was the militia that had captured me.
               I could not escape them then, my leg was hurt.

               There I stayed for three days, not putting up a fuss.
               I knew I could escape after they went to sleep.



               My leg was better.
               I ran and ran.

               I found a group of people.
               They said they were looking for a refugee camp.

               I went with them.
               We walked for ten days, until we found a camp.
