Here I am <br />Alone in this place <br />I look around for a familiar face <br />But all I find are eyes full of fear and hate <br /> <br />Lower than them I am they say <br />Treated like a dog day after day <br />Fed scraps from their table if fed at all <br />Feeling so insignificant and small <br /> <br />A number tattooed upon my arm <br />Living like an animal in a barn <br />Abeit Macht Frei the gates did say <br />Freedom would be ours if we worked each day <br /> <br />The smell was unpleasing <br />No one knew why <br />The secret was kept <br />As curls of smoke floated into the sky <br /> <br />Piles of glasses <br />Piles of shoes <br />Many were lost <br />What will you do?<br /><br />Jenna Rose<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/holocaust-poem/
