Ophelia-Guardian of Innocence

           This page was made in memory of Susie. Susie was a little girl killed in the Holocaust. You may be wondering why I would make a page about someone in particular and I'll tell you why. I was deeply saddened by her death because she was so young. I can't believe that someone could shoot her just because of her nationality. I was very upset about the Holocaust but I feel that everyone should know what happened to them, reguardless of their age. Little Susie was also in Schindler's List, which is a black-and-white film, and she is the only person who has color on. She's wearing a red jacket and she's walking up and down the street while other Jews are being escorted to concentration camps. They find Susie later on but it is too late......she has been shot in the head by a Nazi soldier. And all because of one fact. She was Jewish. Michael Jackson has a song called 'Little Susie' and if you have not heard it, I urge you to listen to it. It is a very emotional song and if you have no way of listening to it, why don't you watch Schindler's List? I do warn you though, it is VERY graphic and IS NOT a good movie to show young kids. Below I have the lyrics to MJ's song 'Little Susie'. I have not found a MIDI yet but I'll keep looking.

Little Susie

Somebody killed little Susie
The girl with the tune
Who sings in the daytime at noon
She was there screaming
Beating her voice in her doom
But nobody came to her soon...

A fall down the stairs
Her dress torn
Oh the blood in her hair...
A mystery so sullen in air
She lie there so tenderly
Fashioned so slenderly
Lift her with care,
Oh the blood in her hair...

Everyone came to see
The girl that now is dead
So blind stare the eyes in her head...
And suddenly a voice from the crowd said
This girl lived in vain
Her face bear such agony, such strain...
But only the man from next door
Knew Little Susie and how he cried
As he reached down
To close Susie's eyes...
She lie there so tenderly
Fashioned so slenderly
Lift her with care
Oh the blood in hair...

It was all for God's sake
For her singing the tune
For someone to feel her despair
To be damned to know hoping is dead and you're doomed
Then to scream out
And nobody's there...

She knew no one cared...

Father left home, poor mother died
Leaving Susie alone
Grandfather's soul too had flown...
No one to care
Just to love her
How much can one bear
Rejecting the needs in her prayers...

Neglection can kill
Like a knife in your soul
Oh it will
But Susie fought so hard to live...
She lie there so tenderly
Fashioned so slenderly
Lift her with care
So young and so fair
