| Indian Girl She cried... The sun rose and fell the wind blew warm then cool the hours passed slow and she just cried. She layed... on a bed that sprung and squeaked and shook she looked and even the floor seemed more a place to be she layed and the bed was worn and used like her She bled... She bled from her womb and hurt He stared. He looked in to her eyes that cried and laughed She wept he got off, pulled out and left She just layed and cried then wept she bled from her womb and hurt She was nothing and no one cared and then she did it all again. When morning comes she'll do the same, but numb As she's become nothing to herself. |

| A few nights ago I watched a documentary about little girls in India who are stolen from their homes and sold in to sexual slavery where they are forced to work as prostitutes in brothels. Some as young as six or seven years old. 80% of the girls and their customers are infected with HIV/AIDS. It is not uncommon for these girls to have 15 abortions during their enslavement and be forced back to work hours after an abortion. I know this happens all over the world including America but I was especially touched seeing it play out. Terrianne copyright� 12-04 all rights reserved by the author. |
