Fight

He should have never been convicted.

There are so many of us freedom fighters rotting away in prison.

I feel the need to crumble in sobs... Maybe I will. Everyone around me seems to be sleeping and if they appear awake they stare at my anger and grief as if I've lost my mind and that, although not alone, makes me feel crazy. Do you see? Do you feel anything? Why are you looking at me like that?

But I am strong. I am a survivor. I do not give up. I have never cowered in the face of injustice or inequality. I will not suffocate under the weight of hate. I fight. I am a fighter.
