Another day and we lost another daughter…!

It doesn’t matter where she’s from,

If she’s from this side of the border or that side,

A daughter is always a daughter,

Doesn’t matter her age when it comes to these violent, crooked minded animals who commit these atrocities against these innocent souls and later blame it on what she wore or how she was revealing too much skin or how she was out late at night…!


A fear needs to put in our minds—

I used the word “our” because I come from the same gender who commits these atrocious acts against a girl, a woman and someone whom you could call your grandmother;

And,

The way these monsters roam free after committing an act that should be repaid by their own life is too high;


When someone has a daughter at home and they see her with a pure vision and want no harm to come her way;

How does that same vision dwindles as soon as those eyes find a prey??

A prey in their eyes who is no greater than their daughters and why doesn’t their daughter’s face reflect in her face;


Do you think they are conscious enough not to hurt and do something unthinkable to their own daughter but their mind tells them otherwise as soon as they see someone who is not their blood…?

Or,

They already have their vision on them but don’t do anything because they’re scared,

Scared of the fact that they will be ostracised if they do something to their own daughters…?


How come your daughter deserves safety, respect and dignity;

While the girl walking alone on the road, even during broad daylight deserves none….?
