Oh no! They’re coming
Everyone is terrified
Some tried to run away
Others, like you were too scared
You walk the streets everyday
Every time you go outside
There are less and less people
Until you look around
And see all the people that disappeared
You were captured.
Trapped in the ghettos
Not knowing how long you were going to be there
People are disappearing again
Time is running out
You try and think of something to do
But there is nothing you can do to escape the Naizs
You go on living in the ghetto like nothing has changed
There are new faces coming everyday
The old ones are still leaving
Your name is called
It’s you leaving
This is your first time outside the ghetto in months
Your first instinct is to run
You don’t because you’re too scared to get shot
You’re ordered to march
You march
You’re ordered to run
You run
Everyone does exactly what they are told
No one knows what punishment would be in store for them
You all get on a train
No seats, barely any food
Just standing for hours
The train finally stops
Everyone gets off even though no one knows where they are
“Women right. Men left”
You’re separated from your mom
Only left with your older brother
You smell something burning
You hear gunshots
You see hangings
You are living in hell.
