The Yellow Star of Jewish Ghetto

The Yellow Star of Jewish Ghetto
Into my skin is deeply set to.
Six million weeping yellow stars
Are in my heart as painful scars.

They radiate such burning light,
Like sun, which rose amidst the Night,
The Night of Death, the Night of Sin,
The Night of Crimes against my kin.

Yet through the covers of that Night
These yellow stars did shine so bright
With cry, which spreads through Universe,
Six million voices strong eternal curse.

To beasts, with swastika on sleeves,
To killers, torturers and thieves,
Who brought such Shame on Human Race,
Which no one ever will erase.

Six million weeping yellow stars
Are in my heart as painful scars.
I want the World to feel my pain
For Jewish lives being lost in vain.

Thanks. Among the English language poetry pieces, which I wrote, my personal favorites are:
"Melting snow", "Ghost in the woods", "The mystic secret of the night" and "When Childhood comes back again".
