I felt entrapped
By my captors gaze.
It held my heart
With deathly rage.
I tried to look away,
his eyes they stared
Straight through me.
I felt an aching pain.
I began to tremble,
As my confidence
Quickly vanished,
While he starred at me.
What he saw,
I understood not.
The sight before his eyes
Was a wretched mess.
Make-up smeared face,
Rats and mangled hair,
Clothes torn to shreds,
And eyes full of tears.
I felt entrapped
By my captors gaze.
It held my heart
With deathly rage
