# MeToo

The hashtag me too

Has taken the world

By storm unprecedented.

The famous women

And the not so well-known

Sharing their travails

Of sexual abuse, groping

And inappropriate touch

By men in power,

Men who they trusted.

Men in the guise

Of the mentor, protector

Turning into predators

Preying on women

To be abused

And molested.

Innocent children too

Not spared.

How many promising

Careers sacrificed.

Families broken

Not to talk of

The mental agony.

Wake up men, women

Say NO.

Break the silence,

Shame the perpetrator.

Achieve the very aim

Of #MeToo.

From,

Radhika,
