1942

just something i came up with while watching a DVD about the holocaust. I guess this was a way for me to vent. Tell me what you think :)

Souls lost in time 

Not much they can call mine

Freedom taken, Speech silenced, cries heard.

They are forgotten in war, lost in translation

One mans decision affects millions

Tens of thousands of pleas

Hundreds of screams 

Yet, soon will be dead silence

Men, Women, and children

made to suffer because they were different

Objectified  because of a selfish act

The bodies begin to stack

So many souls, yet not forgotten 

The world knows what you did

And you will never be forgiven

Moans of the once living 

Will be the most unforgiving 

Evidence is every where 

You can't hide anymore

The more you try to hide it 

The more you look guilty 

Some of you have no remorse 

All your dirty deeds have ran their course

Those eyes, Those tears, Those lost years

11 Million voices unheard 

6 million were caught in the serge

One mans desire for a perfect race

Thought it be best for Jews to be erased 

And for Germans to fill their space

The commander of the third Reich

Took command of the worlds mike

He said "We must get rid of the Jews"

We say unto you...

"You should have been sacrificed to the fire

for all the devastation and ruin,

Because the final solution should have been your undoing"

This is a spectacular poem and speaks the truth. The war is pointless and many people die because of it. Thank you for sharing this brilliant poem.
