STUDY HALL\u2019S TRIBUTE TO NIRBHAY<\/h1>\n

She went to a mall to see a film like you and me.<\/p>\n

On her way back home in a private bus,<\/p>\n

Six ruffians defiled her, betraying her trust.<\/p>\n

One by one, they molested and beat her.<\/p>\n

Each one of them was worse than a cur.<\/p>\n

There was no option but to bear the atrocity.<\/p>\n

Her friend fought for her in the infamous city.<\/p>\n

But the criminals were without scruples, remorseless.<\/p>\n

They kicked her, injured her badly and tore her dress.<\/p>\n

They threw them out of the bus, onto the pavement.<\/p>\n

They lay there hurt and bruised, twisted and bent.<\/p>\n

Help! Help!! They cried, almost yelped.<\/p>\n

Folks passed by, scared, didn\u2019t render help.<\/p>\n

They remained there, half-dead in a state of undress<\/p>\n

A pair of naked bodies, they looked such a mess!<\/p>\n

A kind soul appeared out of the blue.<\/p>\n

Said to himself,\u201d Something I must do\u201d.<\/p>\n

Got a sheet and gave them dignity and their due.<\/p>\n

From their sad state, he took a cue.<\/p>\n

He took them to a nearby hospital.<\/p>\n

The girl is critical, the doctors announced.<\/p>\n

The boy recovered but she, back to life, couldn\u2019t bounce.<\/p>\n

She struggled for weeks; the will to live was strong.<\/p>\n

The hospital stay was very painful and long.<\/p>\n

She turned serious and was taken to Singapore.<\/p>\n

She had now become like India\u2019s folklore.<\/p>\n

There, she unfortunately breathed her last.<\/p>\n

In India flags were at half mast.<\/p>\n

Called Nirbhay, she was hailed as a brave-heart.<\/p>\n

Valiantly and beautifully, she had played her part.<\/p>\n

In her death, we have found a cause to fight for.<\/p>\n

No girl will ever face rape, blood or gore.<\/p>\n

A young life snuffed out in the prime of her life.<\/p>\n

Fight back, we will, never mind the pain and strife.<\/p>\n
