Covered.

Ok so I got inspired for this from this-
It's about this young girl who was expecting a baby.And she was just walking down the street in Paris when some guys attacked her because she was wearing a veil.


Quietly she walks down the street,
Eyes lowered and very discreet,
She means no harm to nobody,
But he couldn’t see that, could he?

Worn a coat and wrapped a scarf around her head,
Oblivious to what lies in her path ahead,
Feels the smash so hard on her stomach,
Knocked down on the cold floor writhing away in pain so much.

It came with the speed of lightning,
Didn’t give her time to do any thinking,
One after another continuously she’s pounded,
Lost half a life and left her gravely wounded.

She suffered this monstrosity because it was her fault,
Her fault was that she was covered all,
Her fault was that she was modest,
She was beaten because she was not like the rest.

She believed in peace and lived by her belief,
She lowered her gaze and that he couldn’t see,
And in the end what did he gain?
A lost child, an irreparable loss and a broken girl left in so much pain.
