Never thought I would be able to get here

Never thought I would have a chance like this  

Never did I think I could  provide for my family

Never did I think I wouldn’t struggle

Never thought my family could have a better life


I am blessed for the opportunity

Others aren’t as lucky


With all the positives there do come some negatives

I would be segregated

I wouldn’t have a lot of job options

I would have the fear of deportation

 

But through it all, 

I am an Immigrant

We are immigrants

I wrote this piece thinking about immigrants and their perspective on coming to the United States. Although i've never experienced this, my family members have. And i'm blessed to have these oppurtunities that many sadly don't have.
