Same act

 All men act the same

and blame

the women for their attraction

with no fault of their relation

 

this is a mere excuse

to defuse

the grave topic

the cruelty remains as a basic concern

 

so far sex appeal is concerned

the women are cornered

abducted or kidnapped against their will

raped and finally killed too

 

so the responsible people make wrong utterances

at the public places

and try to express the sympathy

but in the end, suffers the humanity

 

rape cases are on the rise

and it has remained an element of no surprise

even minor girls are assaulted

by the members of the family and hated

 

such is the scene everywhere

where we are subjected to fear

and compelled to trust no one

not even teachers, relatives or neighbors even
