Captive

I've been taken far away, completely against my will.
Only you can help me, no potion and no pill.
Try to imagine the life, that's been dealt to me.
Trapped in a place...where no one should ever be.

I've been exploited and hurt, cast into a world without light.
Abused and beaten, squeezed too tight.
I've been molested and raped, seeking help from above.
Praying that I'm not forgotten...by the ones that I love.

I pray to be rescued, before it's too late.
Don't ever give up on me, until then I'll just wait.
Please remember, and don't ever forget.
These words you just read, while your eyes got wet.
