Belonging

Lost are you? Bored out of you existence. Life has dealt you a rotten one and you need to belong. Poverty is all around you. The streets is a jungle. You have no choice but to prove to your self that you mean something. Your family, they are caught in the situation too. There’s only one way, the boys . They hold strong. Money , have no problem about that. They do what ever, when ever, to whom ever. They take you in. No hesitation so long that you pass the their rituals of acceptance. When you do your in. I wonder? At that moment if you asked your self. Is this what I want. Am I doing the right thing? Well to late you belong! You belong to a group. A group that’s brutal. They have no empathy. They are worse than animals. And you belong. You attached your self and the only way out is death. Because you belong.......... by: Fernanda Satumbaga Balan 05/21/2020
