I decided to make a reflection through a poem.Taking you through my journey to reconciliation and what has made me who I am today!
Safe- Trey Lefebvre

I lay in my bed.
Eyes closed.
Listening to the birds and breakfast being made.
I get ready for my day and walk to school.
I am safe.

I lay in my bed.
Eyes closed.
Listening to the sound of people coming to get me.
I’m not ready but they take me to my new school.
Am I Safe?

I get to school.
Eyes open.
Watching friends play, teachers laughing, and students learning.
I ask questions, take risks, and have fun.
I am safe.

I get to school.
Eyes open
Watching friends cry, teachers punishing, and students in fear.
I sit quiet, don’t speak, and cry.
Am I safe?

I go to bed.
Eyes closed.
Grateful for my family and friends.
Praying tomorrow will be just the same.
I go to sleep.
I am safe.

I go to bed.
Eyes closed.
Worried about my family and friends.
Praying tomorrow will be different.
I go to sleep.
Am I safe?
