All good is lost,
And we pay the cost,
As we watch our country burn;
A shadow up ahead,
In the path we now tread,
A molester at every turn.
A haven for girls,
Kept decked up in pearls,
Now amused as they stand defamed;
What change came about?
How sick can a man turn out?
The law keeps the culprit unnamed!
Hurting another with such fallen grace;
Leaving her in pieces, feeling disgraced:
Soiling her form, her mind, her life;
It disgusts, hurts and saddens the soul,
A father, a brother, a friend played the role:
Shattering her dreams, her goals in a strife.
Tainted now in the darkest of shades:
Her life is lost, a future fades;
Faith is a myth, humanity a tale.
She's hardly alive, like the waking dead;
*And though she weeps on her poisioned bed,
She will live on bloodless and pale.
I wrote this more than a year back, on reading about a 5 year old **** victim.
I was pushed to frustration when I tried to Google through the News to read the whole report about the case...and found that on entering '5 year old' in Google search, the very first suggestible search read, '5 year old *****'.
It was really shocking...after all the progress in information and research and all this development in infrastructure and industry throughout all countries, have we returned to being barbarians on the moral front?!
Please know, that I acknowledge the fact that only the fairer *** is not exclusively a victim here, it's astounding to look at the number of cases where the roles are reversed...that just makes it all a whole lot sadder...
