In All Those Years

A Germany poem.

Tip: So how I made this poem- I actually sung it off the top of my head. Singing it makes it flow better, since it was originally a song.

Warning: This has several mentioning to Nazis and Jews. Read at your own risk.

I remember all the faces,

Of the people condemned to die.

They looked so sad and broken,

Because they would not survive.

I never even gave them,

A second thought.

I just killed each one of them,

For everything they fought.

I can't tell you how many people,

I condemned to die.

I know that I want to say,

All of it was a lie.

I want to escape this past I made,

Because it was so bad.

But I know that will never happen,

That's what makes me mad,

At the person that was me,

Back when the Jews were free,

I just hate what I became in all those years.

It wasn't fair to me,

It wasn't fair to them,

That I condemned them to die,

Just for their own sins.

I acted like it was the right thing,

But I knew it wasn't true.

I knew what I was doing when,

I executed those Jews.

I couldn't help them,

So I continued the play.

Condemning all their souls,

For Hitler and his gang.

I was a Nazi,

I killed all those Jews,

I didn't give a care,

Until my people dwindled to a few.

I get so angry at the thought.

It makes me so sad.

At the memory of those people,

I become increasingly mad,

At the person that was me,

Back when the Jews were free.

I just hate what I became in all those years.

If I could take back one thing,

I surely would.

I would take back that I tried to kill,

All those Jews.

I never meant to,

Do that to people.

Now I am surely viewed.

As only evil.

I want to redeem,

The soul that was surely lost,

In this battle,

That I had fought.

I'm still angry with the person that was me,

Back when the Jews were free.

I can't forget what I became in all those years.
