History of Sorts

I dreamed that I’d be a ballet dancer one day.

I dreamed that I’d help people as a nurse.

I dreamed that, one day I’d be a Doctor

I dreamed that I would get married, and have a most lavish wedding day.

I dreamed that people would come to see me act on stage.

I dreamed that I would graduate from university.

I dreamed that there would be no more hate.

I dreamed that I’d reach my ninth birthday.

I dream no more.

I am Elisabeth Rebecca Couzijn, born in Amsterdam on January 10, 1934. I was murdered by the Nazis at Auschwitz on October 22, 1942, at the age of 8.
