A great cause wrapped inside a beautiful poem. Plus a video! What more could you ask for? Thank you, Tosha! 😉 ❤
Peace, love & a chance at a real life for all,

Sherrie Miranda's historically based, coming of age, Adventure novel “Secrets & Lies in El Salvador” is about an American girl in war-torn El Salvador:

Her husband made a video for her novel. He wrote the song too. You can find it on YouTube. Or on some of my other posts. 😉 ❤
Imagine the soulless trafficker
holding a young girl’s life in his hands.
Imagine the young girl in front of him,
eyes glazed from the heroin
he’s forced her to inject.
The unturned years stolen.
Her body’s lexicon
the clamor of sharks to blood,
the swarm of hornets.
Raped. Beaten. Used up.
Innocent debased.
He’s taken it all.
Leaving burnt trunk and a once
flourishing root decimated.
Imagine sprayed bullets,
sparkling on the
grimy warehouse floor.
Imagine the now bulging
eyes of the child, the girl
who doesn’t stop being dead.
The tragic wreckage of greed
splayed on the ground.
Let her gone dreams haunt you.
Don’t allow her to become
an apathetic byte on the news,
incapable of ruining your family’s dinner.
For a moment at least,
be conscious, not comfortable.
Allow her to bare her teeth
and demand that you see her loss.
This child, born into a world
