    I know I just posted an SU, but I've got a few things I want to share. 

    First, this is a good list of songs you should listen to (some of them have swears, just a heads-up):

    Spoiler

    skin - acoustic by Jessica Baio

    Emergency Contact by Haley Joelle

    Just Fine by Em Beihold

    Not Who We Were by Em Beihold

    Can't Wait to Be Pretty by Cate

    broke & lonely by Alexa Cappelli 

    Remember That Night? by Sara Kays

    Devil by Sophie Pecora

    Fingers Crossed by Lauren Spencer Smith

    Flowers by Lauren Spencer Smith

    Second thing:

    In English, we're writing remembrance poems (free verse) for real children from the Holocaust (specifically Terezin). I just finished mine and wanted to share them. They contain sensitive topics, so just throwing that out there. They're short, but yeah. You can read their stories here: Reva Gabe Eduard Hornemann

    Reva Gabe's poem--titled "Stronger":

    Spoiler

    Life was happy, even bright
    Until you came along
    Took our homes and took our pride
    Burned our Torah scrolls
    You killed me at fifteen but 
    Ended my life three years before
    But as long as you're remembered,
    So will I be
    As a girl who was murdered
    At Hitler's mercy--of which there is none
    So my swan song is this:
    Let my legacy shine while yours tarnishes
    I may be broken, but you are shattered
    Because I am stronger than you ever were.

    Eduard Hornemann's poem--titled "Took it All but Got Nothing"

    Spoiler

    Take away my mother
    Take me and my brother
    Prod us with needles
    Necklace of rope
    Strangle our hope
    Strip us to the bone
    But you will not win
    We will not give in
    If it's good versus evil,
    We already know who prevails
    If you win this battle, 
    You won't win the next.
    And if they're my very last words,
    I'll promise you that.

    Because of how intense and gruesome Eduard's story is, I wanted to be more vague with his poem. If I went into detail, I'm not sure it would be necessarily school-appropriate. 

    Which poem do you guys like better?

      Wow. Those are really good. I think I'd have to choose Stronger, just because it tugs at my heartstrings a little more, but they're both awesome.

      Yeah I love them both but Stronger is slightly better in my opinion.

      Thank you! I honestly agree. It was the first one I did, but I was honestly just scrambling for time on the second one.
