Childhood

In the other
childhood

And on Saturday nights, after "Havdalah"
A Hassidic tale about the wonders
Of great rabbis
Always surrounded by love.

I was
deported to a void!
Our whole lives packed in bags
My mother's hand caresses my head
My father's glance gives comfort.

No more
tales of miracles and wonders,
That won't happen here.
The princess now crawls in the snow,
Begging for some bread and water.
Her clothes are torn, her feet frozen;
A princess sick with typhus searches for a bed.
No more light in the castle,
The memory of stories extinguished.
"I am in two worlds...If I can paint with those colors, it is a sign that I am still optimistic." That won't happen here.
The princess now crawls in the snow,
Begging for some bread and water.
Her clothes are torn, her feet frozen;
A princess sick with typhus searches for a bed.
No more light in the castle,
The memory of stories extinguished.
