I wrote this poem about a girl living ina concentration camp during the holocaust.
Stripped
Of family, clothes, names
I am now not Carlia but A5693
Each day that passes
The next one is longer
They think they make me weaker
But they really make me stronger
I still have my faith
Though death looms over
The months go quickly
From January to October
Every day I say to myself
God will protect me
But then…why are we here
Why are all theses people dying?
Death is surrounding me
It’s in the air and the ground
Thick pillars of black smoke rise from the buildings
Carrying all the family, friends and martyers to heaven.
I think it’s a test of faith
And the monsters will leave.
However through the despair them looms over
I still believe
God is watching over me
Each day that I live
Each day I know the sun is shining
Behind those iron gates
Where we were accepted and loved.
A world I once knew
Abiect Mach Frie
Work will set you free
To heaven I guess
But one strange thing is
Everyday I think to myself as we ushered brutally out of the bunk
And I don’t know why I think this
I shouldnt be alive
There are people who deserve it
But even when its gone
I’m glad to be me
Alive and A Jew

This poem just came to me
Staring up at the pale moon I see
I see my life and it's journey
I see me deciding right from wrong
The path I should take
Not sure where I really belong
I see me choosing my own way
It not right
Me changing it
I see me alone and cold
Searching for myself
Not sure who i want to be
I see me changing
Hoping that I'm changing for the better
Not knowing if I made a good choice
I see me wondering
Wondering what path I'm going to take
And if it will be the right one
I see me lost and confused
Not sure why
My life is the way it is
I see me worrying
Worrying my life will be horrible
Hoping it won't
I see me
As who I want to be
My own person
Glad to be who I am

What happens if we cant decide?
Cause Brooke,I liek the way your poem is...You left out a word by the way.Or at least I think you did.
Nicole,I also like yours cause of the rhyming parts and the fact that it just came to you...
I cant decide...
