I Exist

Tolerate me don’t persecute me; unity of our souls gives us courage and strength
I will work and support myself and family just so I won’t go back to the human abuse
I exist in perpetual fear of detection and deportation.

Jan, wasn't my first one but went back and reread the instructions so I had to shorten it. Thank you so much your comment means so much to me. Hugs Eve
