Escaping the Nazis

Once when I was in that place,

fear ran down over my face.

 

Scared that I would be found out,

I hid in various places about.

 

All alone in a barn like shed,

a beating heart, a hurt head.

 

The snow covered the prairie ground,

I saw my breath in the air around.

 

Thinking that this life’s not fair,

how much more would I have to bear?

 

Shall I risk it? Shall I a run?

Will they see me and point their gun?

 

Doubt emerged and entered my space,

for I was the unlucky unchosen race.
