/This poem is written about the trauma that an acid attack victimized girls
----
Saying `NO´ was my mistake?
Thousand times I ask the almighty here
what was my guilt please tell me dear!
just Saying `NO´ was my serious fault?
Had to reward such a costly Assault??
Behold! the people are mocking at me
Behold! the crowds are joking at me
Here I am! masked with crumbled face
Alas! gone my relishing beauty and grace!
Had it turned into just a nightmare
Had I escaped from the wind of despair
Wanna have a world without a visage
World has turned just a dark passage!
