Vanish
She slowly fades away
Into the air like dust
Into the night like a fleeting dream
Out of history like an exiled queen.
Falling away from the shore
With each approaching tide.
This crisis grows bigger than femicide
For they’ve begun to attack even the child.
Some disappear like phantoms
While police struggle to catch
The heartless hoodlums.
Who are these culprits
in our degenerate society,
Who steal our females
In homage to some satanic piety?
