Remembrance

Sadness lays heavy in my heart

And in the hearts of people everywhere

For our peace has been torn apart

By terrorists who caused an unthinkable nightmare

Evil fanatics, destroying, causing havoc

Hurting innocent people, so much pain

An act preformed by minds run amuck

Those left behind crying tears of rain

Children losing their mom, or their dad

A woman losing the love of her life

So many friends and family made sad

A man crying for the loss of his wife

And we ask why? Why did this have to be?

These people chose to fight in a cowards way

But we are still here, united, we are still free

Our freedom will not be taken, it is here to stay

They can cause death, and terror and pain

They can make our buildings fall to the ground

But they really have nothing to gain

Because long after they are gone, we will still be around

Tonight and for many nights to come, our pain will be felt

But we have many nations standing behind us, giving us support

Against the cruel blow that we were dealt

And together we stand, until these terrorists, we do abort

Tomorrow. September 14, 2001, is set aside as a day of memory and prayer

To join hands and remember all the people that have gone above

To mourn our loss brought on by an act so unfair

To reach out to each other in hope and remembrance and love

To remember and mourn the people who were lost

To give our comfort and the love in our heart

Because we stand united at any cost

And we honor those that did so depart....

This poem was written for the day of remembrance but

let us all remember that the pain goes on everyday for

those that lost their lives and loved ones September

11, 2001 . let us keep them in our prayers everyday..
