Human Trafficking has been an issue so close to my heart every since I was made aware of the problem a few years ago. I wrote this poem a while ago and have decided to share it with you all this week.
Fatal promises bring ruin.
Thoughts of hope and prosperity fly.
Ripped a p a r t by lies.
Deceived and sold into slavery
Modern day slavery.
Humans trafficked & treated like cattle.
Those trapped in the deception fight a battle.
Bruised and battered.
Trust shattered.
They SCREAM.
Or suffer silently.
Where can they go?
How do we not know?
How do we miss the signs they show?
When does it end?
Can governments be trusted friends?
Or are they also the enemy of humanity?
