In the silent night, a cry goes unheard,
A whisper of pain, in shadows it hides,
A heart bruised by the unseen blows,
A soul shattered by the weight of despair.

Eyes that once sparkled, now dimmed with fear,
Dreams crushed under the merciless hand,
A story of sorrow written in tears,
The silent scream of a broken spirit.

A plea for help, caught in a web of silence,
The chains of anguish, invisible but strong,
A fight for freedom, a struggle to be heard,
In the dark abyss of gender-based violence.

Yet hope flickers, a fragile flame,
In unity, strength to break the chains,
Voices rising, breaking the silence,
Together we stand, against the tide of pain.
