Night - Holocaust

The Holocaust

 

Piles of disfigured bodies

laying in complete stillness

crouched behind

I begin to hear marching

footsteps come nearer

I steal a peek

 

It is a SS officer

his big black boots

mean smirk

he looks my way

i duck down

should i stay completly still and act dead?

 

I turn around and run as fast as I can

away from this foul stenching place

I run for my life and for freedom, to escape

I close my eyes

trees are wizzing past me

then sirens begin to call

 

I can hear them coming after me

I continue to run as fast as I can

but I loose my footing in the mud and slip

 

I look up and i'm surrounded

this means certain death

I faint

 

When i wake up i'm in a room

sitting helpless strapped in a chair, i hear noises

I can just make out what there saying

thier trying to figure out how there going to kill me

I hear many words flying around  in my head

Gassing, shooting, crematorium, human experimentation

apparently i'm usesless for Mengele's use

they settle on crematorium

 

As i'm being carried to the edge of the pit,

I think to myself

will they have the desency to shoot me first?

 

They through me in the flames

they envelope me

hot as the sun

my flesh is melting away

my screams barely heard over the hundreds of thousands in here

 

they watch me die

I have no power left

I leave my body, my shell

I look forwards to heaven, to the end

It can only mean one thing, freedom

and I pass.
