Justice Denied..Without a Trial!!





"You are Lying !!", they said.
"I am INNOCENT", I pleaded..
"I wanna hear no more", they declared.

"I don't lie Your Honor..only a handful of them,
And this ain't the occasion", the naked truth..
"Don't You say a word..
Have you any Proof?", the skepticism.

I muster a witness, the ray of hope.
The court waits on, the patience
He arrives on scene..the palpitation.
He says Nothing..the disappointment.

A silence....
More silence........

"You are GUILTY
until proven INNOCENT", the verdict.
"Dejected, hopeless,
Deflated, scarred", the state of mind.

No lawyers,
No trials,
One man's Silence
against the Other....

Trust?? Oh ! the sheer absence!
Truth?? Oh the silent cover!
Just a little prayer for Thee..
Let not the hope Die in Me....
