Sunrise At Aushchwitz
Sunrise At Auschwitz
As if they needed sunrise one more time.
There's not a lot the world would have to say
not seeing with their eyes, this human crime
nor caring unless it sees light of day.
Another day to rise and watch one's breath
a steaming from the heart that can not care
in bitter cold, just hoping early death
will take them far away, to--anywhere!
As if they needed one more day to live
in death's cold grip, they greet the coming dawn,
unmercifully life clings, and will not give
until they've paid the price, death lives right on.
There was no ray of hope for anyone
who greeted dawn with life still holding on.
