I Survived
I remember that day
The day when my life turned upside down
The day I was kidnapped
Taken from my bed
Swayed from one side to another
Going down the steps
Out the door
When I see a car a few houses from my own
I struggled and fought against him
He held me tighter and pinched me harder
Pushed me in the car and we drove away
I was thinking “ Will I see my mom again”
Will the police find me?
We arrive at this house
He locked me in a room
And laughed his way out
I tried to undo my bonds
Grabbed a pen near me
But cut myself instead
Then he came in
“ The police will find me”
“ Will they? You will never be found”
“ F you!”
I got beat
I was tired
He left
But I had a fire
A desire and will to be free
He beat me till I was tired
But I would be free
He dragged me until I was bruised
But I would be free
He humiliated, tortured, and put me down
But I would be free!
Then a few days later, I was free
