We did not
Have a lot
But
We had
Dignity and respect
Limited choices
Taking
Maximum effect
We did not
Know too much
But
We had
An eagerness to learn
Limitless voices
Taking us
Beyond barbed fences
We did not
See an end
But
We battled
Everyday a new beginning
Risking freedom
Taking
No prisoners
We did not
Give up
But
Managed to stay true
Tears will always be stinging
Laughter always simple abundance bringing
Taking
Nothing as automatically given
