Our Only Escape is the U.S.

Our Only Escape is the U.S.

We left quickly from my country

El Salvador.

My only escape is the U.S.

With my son.

It is better to die

Fighting

Than to die doomed

Condemned

By the gangs.

People in my country told me

“the trip is dangerous . . .”

But we made the trip.

God never fails.

I have to tell you”

God never leaves me.
