Anne Frank Tribute
Im Anne
Anne Frank I’ve seen so such darkness on my very last days
For I could not see the darkness that blinded the ones who I need
I was brave even on my last day
Sure I felt much pain but I was the love that kept us strong
I was the one who made sure no one felt wrong
I protected the ones whom I felt close to for I was the one who glued them together
Even when I felt closed off and had no one to talk to I had him peter and my book my very own journal sure I could talk to peter but the blank space on my page felt like I could escape
My book spoke to me even through the dark I finally had someone to talk to whom would soon be the reason you know my name today
2 years
2 years is a long time to hide but at least we tried to fight for our lives when most likely in the end we would die
All Jews tried to live but its hard if your being treated like this
We would w their be beaten or whipped but for what because I didn't do the deeds they say I did
I was myself and that was it they said I was a Jew and I should pay but for what I haven’t done any of the awful words they say
I'm stuck in a cage like all the rats I can't get out or go back
Go back to my perfect life like the ones in movies I had friends I really did I used to have meip but now I can't sleep staring at the same walls for two years wondering will it ever stop the sleepless nights and all my feelings I would fight just to make sure my family feels kind
I'm always there for them and no one else I have to be so quiet I can't even shout
I know my perfect life is gone but I’ve kept wondering will it ever be lost
Will I ever remember a time with no war no tears and no fights
Every time I think it's over it never really is cause I can't get the closer when we're like this
Everyone is fighting there’s no food to taste everyone speaks so short I don't know how much more I can take
All the screaming and crying feels like there’s never a break
For I know this is true for everyone but sometimes I feel like the only one
The only ones who holds them together to sanity sure were surviving but I feel like i'm the only one who’s thriving I share my love every night I love my dad but sometimes my mom thinks she's always right
I am love
Holding everyone together can be hard but if I don't be the love there won't be anymore to keep us from falling apart
When I saw the sun again for the first time In two years I could feel the warmness shelter me I now realize I will die but if I don’t share the love there will be no more to spear im separated from my family in a camp but atleast I have the cold fresh air
I feel so lucky to be out but then I remember I won't have much time left to get out
I'm stuck here forever yes I know that but my mind will always be captured to my book the one I no longer have in this camp all I can do is hope it comes back
The voices are cold I fear that if something doesn't happen fast I know that my life is sure to be vast
It’s hard to hear the cursing voices at the camp because I don't know how much longer I’ll last
I know not all people are bad but it's hard to believe when they treat us so bad that most of the time I think what did I do to make them so mad
Remembrance
Remembrance is a difficult world that word hold memories and bares witness to all the tragedy in lives around the world
Remembrance
How will we remember the wars that we fight if we weren’t there the whole time
Remembrance
We have to share share the memories we hold because if we dont its like it never happened
Repeating and repeating in a cycle this word appears every single year cycle and cycle around like a wheel we go through the same things we thought we fought through
But no the selfishness to hard to bear if Anne was here she’d tell us the cycle the whole cycle when people decide to hide away because of the fights
The fights of gender or equality we fight but for what
If it’s just a cycle every time
We can't ignore it we’ve already tried but ill bear witness and i won't hide
I will share to the world all the wrong and the rights
People won't agree but that's fine
I'll stand up tall and I won't cry for many people have lost their lives fighting for the same right that once again is repeating every single time

It’s a tribute to Anne Frank. The last paragraph is how to bare witness to her story.
