7512 : Holocaust Poetry

written by Poet : kelsahyy


{this was a poem of mine i did as a class project over the holocaust unit. the project was done in order to relate to the prisioners.}

7512

My faith proclaimed is as a Jew, my number 7-5-1-2.

 Today, all things on Earth awoke to die.

 For if you told me sooner, I'd think it to be a lie.

 It is an evil day for Gypsies and Jews, now it's too late to question such news.

 My eyes transfixed on the pit of hell,

 Such a thing you cannot forget; such a lingering

smell.

 I'm forced to work but I grow so weak.

 I stand tall for inspections, hoping it's not me they seek.

 This hell is now my home.

 As days progress, I fear I shall die alone.

 Where is god? Why does he wait?

 What did I do to earn such a fate?

 My body loses its will; I made it this far into the fight.

 For the only way out, is the burning cloud of flight.
