for the past few years
this girl
has been missing
her name is elizabeth
or abigail
or judy
or jane
or laura
or julie
or becca
or sasheer
or any other girl
i don't know
i couldn't tell you her name
her last known location
was here
or there
or wandering around a target
not knowing where to go
or who to trust
she's ten
or twenty
or sixteen
or maybe she doesn't know
she's been out of it
for so long
she couldn't tell you
who she is
or where she's from
all she knows
is that she's alone
and afraid
but she doesn't know who took her
she knows
that she let go
of herself
for a moment
a split second
and now
she's gone
