Never ending wait
Stasi prison May 27, 1986
Massively worried again.
I got too much time to think.
The silent treatment is wearing.
Is there a reason for all this?
Why is nobody talking to me?
Will I ever see my comrades again?
Less than three months on my sentence.
It is very rare that someone goes on transport shortly before their sentence ends.
I have seen 5 or 6 folks stay until their very last day to be released back into the country.
That would be my biggest nightmare.
What would happen to my life?
Would I ever get out?
My parents came in vain yesterday yet again.
Another visitation day cancelled on them.
Would they have news from the lawyers?
Can’t keep my concentration longer than a couple of minutes.
These grueling questions day in day out.
More waiting...
