Holocaust

Joyless silence Fills the air As the terrible day Draws near No one was expecting it Nor did they want it It was just one of those things that just happens Millions of Jews filled the streets As the armed Germans came to sweep By and by they jacked precious things From these poor, defenseless human beings Group by group they were kidnapped Then, by gender they were segregated Forced into labor and watched twenty-four seven There was nothing they could do Stripped of their identity And robbed of their clothes They were thrown into concentration camps With no need to live And no where to go Labled and tagged Like slaves Worked to death For no pay Who will put an end to this cruel suffering? God finally heard their prays For after 12 years of agony In 1945 America and their allies Came to the rescue and took Adolf Hitler far far away We learn and remember this horrifying day Where millions of good people lost their lives Where things went astray When Germany had nothing but strife No one will ever forget this day That we call the Holocaust The day that millions of Jews' lives were lost
