I Fell In Love With The Girl At Auschwitz Poem by Nick Hilton

I Fell In Love With The Girl At Auschwitz

Rating: 4.5


She was on the tour with me,
Around the death camp,
At the gas chambers she stared at me,
And i was lost in sorrow,
This was a place after all,
That had seen love in the face,
Of brutal adversary and pain,
And there i was fifty years on,
In Poland a land of my fathers,
Falling in love at Auschwitz,
Despite the fact i knew it wouldn't be,
I faced my own adversary,
And brought to life for myself,
That no matter how much we think,
About our goods and our health,
We can always find care,
However hard we look,
Love will always be there.
