Sexual Violence

EARTH on RAPE by Santosh Acharya

What a wounded world, once was so beautiful, now full of chaos and horror
Rape, increasing brutal culture of modern days, psychopath’s ongoing terror
Mutual respect, honor and dignity vanishes and every hour rapists multiply
Infants and children are molested all around, who hears the innocent’s cry

Who to trust, father proves to his own daughter and brothers repeat to their sisters
Teachers attack their students, devotees receive blessing from priests and ministers
Where are we safe? Neither in home, nor in school, either in bed or in a moving bus
If we are to live a life of dead , hey rulers, tell us why can’t we cross roads in rush

Justice exist in the page of dictionary, when courts become the office of a corporate
Painful truth of ours becomes a humor; it gets distorted and remains never accurate
Ravishers ultimately win, with money they enslave, lawyers, politicians and police
Poor victims grieve and die, still for society, they turn into an untouchable disease

Modern civilization, why didn't you preach morality in your college and university
Victims keep suffering, media celebrates and police just watches, what an insanity
Uhhhh...! Who to rely on when everyone is corrupted, none produce needed efficacy
We suffer and we die, still our painful story sells in our beautiful world of democracy

We can't keep watching and continue crying, positive people lets unite to fight
Dump the useless- laws and governance, create a new one clear and bright
Revolt with pen, sing and write, to end the nonsense, come on break the fence
We deserve to live in a safer society, lets wake up to end the sexual violence.
