DARKNESS

She sat there, in a corner,

Not knowing what to do,

Trembling with fear,

Shivering with pain,

As if she was fearing death.

Her silence echoed around,

But she stared blankly-

No tears left to cry,

No emotions left to feel.

They stood laughing above,

Cruelly towering,

Asking each other, what,

Do they do with her now.

Oh! But they had shattered her faith,

She was tormented,

She was tortured, and,

She was harassed.

It was as if,

They had not just physically,

But also emotionally raped her,

Her soul was crushed,

Beyond the victim in her...
