Sacrificed Life
Young, youthful life
Vibrant, colourful, fit
Full of desire, wishes and goals
A personality to set examples
To show others that…
Life is wonderful
Just let yourself go
Only if the others freed themselves
From the shackles of ‘honour’
To experience simple things in life
Freedom, laughter and life
But NO!!
Others did not live or let live
Physical and mental violation
Tortured with ego and arrogance
The ultimate price to a youthful life
A divorce perhaps
Or worse still – throat slitting
A murder outlawed in a land of freedom
But shinning virtue in the land of …where?
Is there a God?
Where is the justice
Why is the justice different?
When we are all God’s children?
Karmic cycles
Round and round
Does anything change???
Hidden in this vast world
Such things happen
Raising its ugly head
At different times
Different worlds
A sacrificed life can be
Living or dead?
