Holocaust

by Yakari Gabriel   Mar 21, 2012


This lust for life
of mine,

stands like a Jew
in a world war two,

its labeled as
unworthy, and
useless

I don't see why
I should be hated

but you say I should,

so I am.

    Yaki this was heartbreaking.....as much as I study the Holocaust every year in history class, it never fails to bring horror to my eyes. I can't imagine those who died, I can't imagine living in that society where Hitler "brain-washed" these groups into thinking they were worthless, all because he wanted the perfect Aryan race. But it's real. Only those who survived can truly understand, but you paint such a clear outcry- that lust for life, and that hopelessness at the end. We can't forget the Holocaust, and we can't forget the victims.
