On the Road...(incomplete)

The road was  empty and night was dark
And no one was far away in sight
There was chill in the wind too that night
But a family could not imagined their plight

A mother daughter and father were going far
When on the highway a group of men stopped their car
In a moment they were all captured
They took mother and daughter in near by farm
And their call for help never got answered

Helplessly nothing a father could do

While a wife and daughter screamed loud

Unable to protect his wife and daughter

Suffering he has been through

In a blink of eyes

A daughter innocence as stolen

Life of family was shattered and broken

He wished he would not had survived
While they tortured a mother and daughter
He cried & pleaded them to stop
But these men lust didn't stop
In matter of second a family life's were torn

Next morning it was all there in news
As usual we will react with despise

Life goes on and  how much we care

Those who did will never not fear
But their won't be any dream in those eyes
And their tears will never go dry

Their future will be full of weep
And they will never find sleep
Few people may gather at India Gate
Someone will also assured them from state

As our memories are very short

Similar things have occurred also in past

And this too will be forgotten fast

Until there will be one more new story
Where one more life will be added to this list
