Never forget the holocaust

Who are they? Walking skeletons?
With a little breath left in their lives,
Though their hearts are still beating,
There is no light in their eyes.

They can die any minute.
Men and women are hardly alive,?
But their babies and children?
Weren't given a chance to survive.

There is no need for an elderly either...
And the black smoke comes up from the chimneys...
They are gone, gone forever... Just listen...
No more sounds of crying and prayers...

A bowl of water was called their soup.
Their clothing was one striped pajama.
They were hungry and weak, had no hope.
How could anyone live through this drama?

It was horrible, ?awful... SIX MILLION!!!
They were people, no one was a ghost.
Please, remember! And, please, teach your children:
We can never forget the HOLOCAUST!
