Echoes of Resilience

Whispers of Hope Amidst Darkness

In shadows deep, where darkness falls,

Humanity's echoes, faint calls.

The Holocaust's scar, a vast expanse,

Horror cast in shadows' dance.

In whispers told, in silent cries,

Truth hidden in unfathomed skies.

Where stars once shone, now shadows reign,

Innocence met with bitter disdain.

In Auschwitz's depths, where silence weeps,

Memory lingers, forever keeps.

Millions' cries, silenced by hate,

Their stories etched in cruel fate.

Yet from the darkness, heroes rose,

Defying night's oppressive close.

In courage, they stood, a beacon bright,

Guiding hope through darkest night.

Names we mourn, faces lost,

A bridge built at immense cost.

Their legacy guides through the gloom,

Leading to a brighter bloom.

In echoes of their silent cries,

A vow to never again deny.

To stand against injustice, aligned,

Honoring souls, confined.

In remembrance, we pledge, we strive,

For a world where hate cannot thrive.

Where unity and love erase the pain,

And echoes of the Holocaust wane.
