The Dark Trail
A nightmare that I had and to get it out of my head I had to write it down.
Clink, Clink, Clink, goes the chain as I am dragged down the dark trail. I know what is going to happen. The same thing happens every night of this awful life I am forced to live. We are nearing the end of the trail, almost to the barn. I hate this part the most. This is the part where it would be easiest to escape but it would also be the hardest point to go.
We reach the barn hidden away in the woods, and I hear more voices than normal. That's strange, but what do I know? I'm just their slave. A slave that they use every night. It's not right; it's not fair, some of the other girls don't have to go every night. But I guess I'm a "barn favorite." My blindfold comes off and I see the same man that I see every night, except, one is missing. There is one open spot; maybe I won't be needed tonight. I hope and I pray and I wish. But no, it couldn't be that easy, now could it?
We are all lead to one wall that has chains coming off it. The same wall I am chained to every night. That is where I wait until I'm needed. I see the first girl get lead away, then the second. Then the screams start. Next the only person who I have talked to in this hell, Maria is taken from my side. I am next. One of the men comes up to me, and drags me away by mu hair. He throws me into an empty stall I land on the hay and then he strips me of my shirt and the baggy pants that replaced the tight jeans that I came here in. My bra and underwear were taken from me on my first night I spent here. I don't resist because if I do then I will die. Have seen three girls die here because they resisted. That was the worst thing I have ever seen in my life.
This man rapes me; he rapes me over and over again. I hate him, I hate them all. They have all done this to me, every night. I wish I had never gone out that night. I wish I had my best friend here so he could save me. He always said I could trust him and that I would be safe if he was around. He wasn't here; I couldn't be wrapped in his arms. I wish I was with my sister and my friends, so they could make me laugh until it hurts my face, but they weren't here. So all I could do was sit here and silently cry, and wait for this man to finish. After he's done I have a pretty good idea what will happen next.
I am right. I was told to put my clothes back on. After I do, he raises his fist and brings it down hard on me. Then again, but this time I am knocked to the ground. Then I feel his steel toed boot slam into my back, it feels like a truck slamming into me. It happens over and over again.
When he is done beating me I am lead back to the wall. I sit there for hours listening to the other girls screams. As I try to tune them out, I think about that night. I conjure my party, my last party, the party that my friend threw for me for my 21st birthday. After the party I walked to a bar to meet a guy friend that I wanted to be more than a friend. I was almost to the bar when I got one of those feelings, a feeling that someone was watching me. I turned around and asked who was there and when I turned back around there was a very large, muscular man. I was kind of creeped out but he was cute so I said, 'Hi'. That was when my life came crashing down. He grabbed me by the waist and shoved a cloth in my mouth before I could scream. I was put in the back of a windowless van and driven for hours, until we got to the cave. Ever since then I have been living in the cave by day with the other girls and then dragged to the barn at night. I feel movement and I snap back to reality just before a foot reaches out to kick me.
It is time to leave
I am marched back to the cave
I know I will die here
I know... I know.
