But now I felt as if they were leading me to my death. On the outside I was content and happy but on the inside my heart was breaking. Leaving the one I love would surely kill me.

I then made a decision that would change my life forever. I left, determined to stay for my love. To wait for him until he returned so that we could be together again. As I turned to leave I could hear them calling my name but I knew I would never turn back.
