Walls echoing with anguished cries,
the smell of death lingers in every corner.
The things seen, felt,
Weigh down the air.
Nothing compares to the evils
That occurred within a death camp.
Jewish people, stripped of more
Than worldly possessions;
Sorted ‘accordingly’, families ripped apart.
To the right, a quick end. Painless? No one knows.
To the left, torture. But still,
A chance to survive.
Again, the horrible things that occurred;
The tragedy of being a twin,
Inevitably to be chosen.
Your future to be filled with
Experimenting, tested on like a lab rat.
The screams of horror, pain.
To be here, in this place--
A nightmare.
Only, one didn’t awaken.
To feel this wrath,
Brought on without cause,
For a crime never committed.
Unjust, cruel, inconceivable;
But it happened.
Listen closely: Still their whispers are heard,
Sighs of agony reverberating through the ages.
