Justice

Uncle rapped me.

The door was not locked,
but I failed to escape.
I was young, I was  just nine.
Uncle was not convicted for rape,
I told Mom and she said I'll be fine.

Justice didn't prevail.
I'm now thirty_
and no man wanna lift my veil.
I didn't just lose virginity,
I also lost dignity.

I didn't abort_
Now she's twenty-one,
She wanna be a lawyer and fix a lot.
Why is uncle still free on streets?
When he did this...

Oh your mum was wrong, and the rapist should have been bought to justice. Be strong and keep going. Sincere wish.
