My project is about PTSD, not specifically PTSD as a whole. But how it affected my life and how it affected my families lives. My father Alexandro Escobar voulnteered to serve in Operation Iraqi Freedom. He went from serving National Gaurd to front line infantry. He seen things many wish to unsee, he was able to capture it all on his camera. He would send messages to his family, they would send back. It was there only way to commincate. This is our messages his thoguhts. Some of which we still never seen till this day. This project was more for me. To understand what my father's life was like, Because growing up. I never knew much at all.

EnglishI created a poem based of words and thoughts my father had, that I really understood growing up.
A father of 3 Leaving thousands of miles To help others be free All i hear is screams The voice echos in my head I see little kids And i think of you 2005 i'm just trying to survive To see you Every day i go through the same path I look around and there is nothing to be found Then everything fades to black I go to sleep Wake up dead I wake up wanting to go to sleep Why me Why did i survive Why did they suffer I close my eyes i hear cracks I hear the cries And i smell the death Only to imagine them burning alive Hoping it was me But I gotta accept that they have died So I can survive And provide For you |
