[bodytext] => Our eyes were opened, but too late.
While we slept, a piercing cry split the silence. Powerless to still our own anguish, We tried to console ourselves, But it was in vain. Madness was taking possession of us all. We could see the barbed wire Flames gushed into the black sky. Those whose numbers had been noted Stood abandoned by the whole world. Too thin, too weak, Some were weeping in silence... We saw smoke rising from the chimney, A silent death ran down our spines. We were unable to breathe Throught the wall of dying people. We tried to rid ouselves of our invisible assassin But death scarcely needed any help.
