Darkness

"I pinched myself: Was I still alive? Was I still awake? How was it possible that men, women, and children were being burned and that the world kept silent?
This picture that I have drawn symbolizes darkness in all the people that were killed and hurt, made slaves of, and even thrown into the flames by the evil of man that put them there, cremated, made fools of, screaming and crying. The chaos in the times of the Holocaust render much darkness in the lifes that were unwillingly put to silence.

Holocaust




The Term Holocaust.... To me the term holocaust means disaster, destruction, sadness, pain, and suffering. The dictionary term for Holocaust is "A great or complete devastation or destruction, esp. by fire."
