Walking down the street on a normal day

Hair being pulled from behind

Life will be changed for the worse

 

Hearing ”Everything will be ok”
Being attacked once again
Feeling like your life is not worth living

 

Having a number that I am identified by
Being a number and not a name
Moving throughout houses

 

Every house is different from the last
Same kind of person I see as I feel violated
Mental scars fill my mind

 

Not wanting to leave
A place of comfort
Not knowing how to live life without it

 

Trying to get over this confusing stage
“Am I scared or do I feel loved?”

This is to show others what sex trafficking is like and a little on how the girls feel. I have done a ton of research on this topic and have found what they struggle with. It ia an emotional piece that  is creating an image for the people reading. I believe that this is a very important topic that people need to be educated on. I live near Chicago and we are a hotspot for sex trafficking and people don't know what is happening in their town. The girls are stuck in this horrible slavery.
