She
has counted the ceilings over and over

She
knows every crevice of the room like it’s her lover

With
sunken eyes, she stares anyways
sunken eyes, she stares anyways
She
has thought of escape in many ways

Escape
from the cruel hands of her abductors

Escape
from their horrid voices

Escape
even in the form of death

Her
maker she is ready to meet.
maker she is ready to meet.
The
footsteps she so dreads,

The
same footsteps she hears.

Her
heartbeat she could hear,

Giving
away the fear she felt.

Once
again, a girl is taken

Once
again the fear of oblivion comes craving.

Her
name is Aisha, She is a Chibok girl

Tell
her parents she is alive and awaits her rescue.
