In India, recently we had so many 'honor killings' where unfortunate lovers who dared to defy met a bitter end. We have many castes and number of religions. Inter-caste and inter-religion marriages are still considered a taboo. These unfortunate lovers are often sacrificed on the altar of this 'honor'. This poem is in remembrance of these 'LOVERS'. This poem is also a protest against the taming of a thing, natural as love. THE KILLING and MAIMING SHOULD END.
