Camp Was My Only Door
Help me escape this world I fear,
Don’t let this unguarded silence come near.
It will surround then devour my life
Remember! Be brave and eager to fight.

Now it is far, far too late
I have entered upon my closing fate.
Locked in a chamber together with death—
The sight of this open door; I’ll never forget!

“With the support of everyone here at camp, I have overcome all the hard things that I have faced in my life. I will never forget what you taught me.”
Christa
