Jailbird and Jailor
brainwashed, kidnapped, jailed
every, escape bid failed
weeks, months, years roll
Stockholm syndrome takes its toll
jailor, a fugitive
jailbird's help is pro-active
the two live in isolation
hidden from civilization
commit crimes to sustain
with no plans to refrain
no exit plan from the perilous slope
the downward path offers no hope
until, one day, when age catches up
when the muscles can't cope,
the two are caught
and, to justice, they are brought

I would like to translate this poem
It is sad that both perish with no scope of redemption and finally end up as wrecks before being brought to justice! A great write!
