This is my slightly obscure take on human trafficking.  Comments gratefully accepted.

Sunlight in her eyes
Innocence unbroken
Captivates the moonlight, then taken
Did she realise,
All the words unspoken,
Sunlight casts a shadow? Mistaken!

Desperate in the moonlight
Shipped across the Ocean to play
Captivates the moonlight
Shipped across the Ocean to play

Sorrow in her eyes
Desperation falling
Haunted by the memory, then taken
Did they realise
Under the weight pleasure
Love can cast a shadow? Mistaken!

Desperate in the moonlight
Shipped across the Ocean to play
Captivates the moonlight
Shipped across the Ocean' to play

Fireflies in her eyes.
No escape from mourning
No-one left worth saving remains.
Did she fantasise
Scarlet coloured pillows?
Standing in the shadows, untamed.

Desperate in the moonlight
Shipped across the Ocean to play
Captivates the moonlight
Shipped across the Ocean' to play

I'm hearing instruments in your lyrics and that's good but very hard to explain in written words  8)

Leaving politics aside I'd like to add a few lines on your chosen topic.

She ‘s all lipstick and mascara
There’s no sign of tiara
There’s no groom ahead

Just men and more men
And pain in a den
Next to her pimps bed
