Natalia Kovalska

"Then I started crying and said: "I'm going to save my child"

views: 77

Poetess Nataliia Kovalska is a displaced person for the second time. In 2014, she left her native Horlivka and settled in Bakhmut. There she encountered a full-scale russian invasion. Her daughter was in Kyiv at the time. So the woman went to rescue her. The evacuation train was a nightmare. People slept sitting, standing, even on the floor near the toilet. Everyone was scared and nervous. However, the most important thing was that Nataliia finally saw her daughter. 

Over these two years, Natalia has written many poems about Bakhmut, about Ukraine and about the angels who fly up to heaven every day.
