"Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp,
that turned my life into one long night seven times sealed.
Never shall I forget that smoke.
Never shall I forget the small faces of the children whose
bodies I saw transformed into smoke under a silent sky.
Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever.
Never shall I forget the noctural silence that
deprived me for all eternity of the desire to live.
Never shall I forget those moments that murdered my
God and my soul and turned my dreams to ashes.
Never shall I forget those things, even were
I condemned to live as long as God Himself.
Never."
