Taken
Ripped away
Forcefully taken from the life she has
Begging
Screaming
Thrashing out in pain and fear
Her mother torn at another child taken
She collapses to her knees
Sobbing
Reaching
The last child in her waking life,
Gone
She's screaming promises to a faceless and gender-less character
One who is supposed to love endlessly
She's begging for answers but may not get the answer she had hoped for.
