Where? Nowhere.

I wrote this poem last year. I think it is almost more relevant now than it was then. So here it is again...

Where do you go when no-one wants you?

Who do you turn to when you have nothing?
When everything you ever knew has been destroyed.

When the line between life and death is paper thin,

When the journey to safety is fraught with danger,
And when safety won’t let you in.

When the Convention of Human Rights no longer seems to apply.

When the United Nations no longer seem united.
And the European Union is in disarray.

How do you comfort your children

When you are as scared as they are?

When the only thing left to lose is your life

And nobody is willing to save it.
Where do you go?
