THE TRAUMA


POEM

Flurry of emotions
makes her cry like
child even after
years have elapsed
since she was raped by a gang.
Bouts of depressions
drown her in a
turbulent sea intermittently.
Whenever she
recollects that fateful day
it often visits her
to shiver like a person
overpowering her.
Once this disease called
rape was centered
around a particular place,
and now it has evolved into an
epidemic across the nation which forces
the people to remain
vigilant to offer maximum resistance.
If society is a mirror
it reflects
victims of rape among
other thing like
rampant corruption, bribery, prostitution,
adultery, poverty, famine to list a few
which run down her spine….
