Witness of Darkness

 

I am Darkness-

The silent listener of screams-and-pleadings;

Shelter for crimes,

Graveyard for many a Maiden’s lives,

Smeared with virgin blood.

Heaven for criminal-hood

Nightmare for womanhood

News , Courts , Discussion , Threatening………..

 

I am Darkness-

The blind witness of heinous deeds.

Strangling of unwanted refusals;

Bruises and scars on soft bodies,

Ripped clothes and snatched respect.

Pride of psychic criminal-hood-

Shame for womanhood.

Press , Shaming , Guilt , Isolation…………

 

“The females are unsafe

                                      Why do they go out?”

“It’s a man’s world

                                      Women not allowed!”

“Feminism is terrorism”

                                       “Where is law?”

“It was the Girl’s fault!”

                                        “Her fate was poor.”

“Where was the mob-

                                         When she was been robbed?”

“Justice is the cry!”

                                         Endowed after Ages!

 

But now is the high time

For my death!

No more Assaults!

No more fear for our “Betis”

Let’s put a full stop on ‘Violence Against Women’

                                 ( THE END)
