Tower and Town, December 2018

  (view the full edition)

Refugee Letter

Dear friend.

I hope you are safe and sound? I was hysterical when I looked back and you weren’t there. Me and my brothers were homesick the whole way there. I couldn’t stop thinking about you. I really do want to know if you are safe I really do. I feel like that was the last time I will see you. I guess it was.

When we arrived, I was starving for food! I stopped crying because I smelt a putrid, eye-watering smell. Now I have been here a while, I have loads of friends. We play tag every day. Sometimes we get homesick!

My hopes for the future are to see you again and stay with you forever and to be peaceful and safe. I hope you have that now.

Lots of love, Phoebe
P.S Hope I see you again!

Phoebe
