Scream, slap, push
Un-ending, abrupt, out-of-the blue,
The hit, the terror, the loud noise
It is a night-mare every day.
Hush voices, silent prayers
Apologizes and rising thunder,
Hidden children, beaten spouse
Drunk man is out and about.
Pushing, pulling screaming out loud
Throwing family on the street out,
Anger destroys families, violence needs a stop
It cannot be allowed; there is no doubt.
Tears gulped-in, trying to forgive and for-go
Starting daily with a hope, that today no-more,
No more beating, no more pain
How on earth, we can sustain?
Stop it with the first slap
See if the signals show a trap,
Leave immediately from the scene
Do not tolerate this domestic violence crap.
It will leave you scarred forever in life
It can break you emotionally more than physically,
It breaks your freedom to live and breathe
It needs to end do not trust any deal!
Violence begun at home, comes on street
Emotions out of control are never okay,
Please move away independently
Do not plead or beg the society.
God created you special in every way
Do not hold any guilt and leave today,
Stand on your own feet, pick up the threads
Life on this earth should not be a threat.
Walk free.
