SCAR

SCAR

A Poem by Neelam
"

This is the voice of sexually assaulted women.

"
Your venomous eyes are penetrating my bones , sending a shudder through the spine…

I can feel your hot breath scorching my skin 

The poison of your stare is seeping through veins , choking me to death……! 

The shadows are sneering at my vulnerability … seeking to devour my frail feminine body

They want to consume my humanity and degrade me into amere object to leash their insatiable lust 

Their cold brutality is soaking my whole being 

Slowly and painfully I’m disintegrating into darkness….

My whole existence is being reduced to twitches of rueful helplessness

They are ravenous wolves 
They transgress the bounds of sanity 
The predators of the unsuspectingThe scavengers of human flesh!
They violate , plunder and leave nothing but scar 

This is the enmity
The raging battle to uphold our dignity in a world that knows no
mercy....!

Your words are profound and chilling. The plight of the victim comes across effectively as does the fear, loathing and revulsion. The perpetrators should be hanged.

Yet, you'd be surprised at how often such creeps lurk around in the unlikeliest of places in the disguise of sane, humane, sensitive people. They who think of women as playthings, mere sex objects.

Appreciated so much Neelam.

This one holds nothing back. But this is good, because such wolves are indeed prowling.
