The only thing they haven't taken away from me

How one dreams with eyes wide open...when war doesn't let them close.

There are places in Colombia where being a child is not a stage,
it is an urgency.
Where instead of notebooks, they carry tools or rifles.
Where playing is a risk... and studying, a privilege.
This work was born for them.
For those who, even with fear, even with hunger,
continue to dream.
Because to dream is also to resist.

We hung this dream in the street,
because in many places...
dreaming is the only thing they haven't been able to take away from them.
