In this deeply moving and honest narrative, the author recounts the painful journey of returning from a dream of escape and freedom to a homeland that feels like an invisible prison. Battling societal rejection, political oppression, and deep discrimination due to his sexual orientation and identity, he exposes how the doors to liberty were slammed shut not only by his own country but also by European borders that systematically exclude refugees and LGBTQ+ individuals under false pretenses of security.

He shares the profound loneliness and despair, how the spirit nearly fades amidst injustice, and how a passport can become a burden, locking its holder inside political and social constraints. Yet amid this darkness, the text pulses with a call for resistance, dignity, and holding onto hope despite pain. It urges endurance in the face of isolation and oppression.

This book goes beyond a personal tragedy, unveiling a wall of repressive policies that trap hope, and reminds readers that freedom and dignity are rights for every human being regardless of their identity, origin, or who they love.
