Murder of Children

One thing that never should be said about children is “Reached the age of..” Yet this did apply to so many children who were murdered during the Holocaust.

When I write an unfinished life, I mean it as the life of the 1.5 million children who were murdered during the Holocaust. For several years I have been trying to finish a song to remember all those children, but for some reason, I cannot finish it. Every time, I sit down to visualize the…
