My God
December 6, 2019
My God
As if walking from a deep sleep
I looked at him without seeing him
Our brains a whirlwind of decaying memories
The face of a stranger
Even I did not believe him
The image I have of him
A faceless shape, filled me with terror.
By now it was Night
I moved like a sleepwalker
Where is merciful God? Where is he?
When death could strike at any time
For God’s sake, Where is God?
I have more faith in Hitler
Nothing mattered to me anymore
Why did I live? Why did I breathe?
Our eyes opened. Too late.
Kinsley Holder
Lines taken from Night by Elie Wiesel

This is a found poem, it is where you take random quotes from a book and put them together to make a poem. I made my poem from the book Night by Elie Weisel, it is about a boy who tells his story of surviving the Holocaust. My poem is about how Elie loses his faith in God afer everything hes been through.
