For Those I Didn'T Know

They slowly walk to Ground Zero to grieve for someone they lost or know, I came to this site for all the fallen; great sadness mixed with supreme joy, because they've reached the ultimate glory... in that place where no one is alone! My poem is for those I didn't know, for someone who needed help, but wasn't there; I would have given up the very breath of this life to have saved,at least, one soul... not to make another bell toll! This loud and deep voice would have called out to them with infinite grace, to pull their trapped bodies out of the flames; and they would have answered me with a whisper... to lead them, from the mortal darkness, into the living light! Seasons change colors, and every year one seems different from the other; I stay the same forever... remembering that nobody is safe anyplace, or anywhere! Be alert and vigilant as they couldn't be... our enemies are full of treachery, and trepidation is a sign of sure weakness; they intimitate us with another menace! My poem is for those I didn't know, and being that stranger I feel even more; I would have offered my kind arms, and let their wish,to stay alive, fall in this caring heart flowing with kindness: I would have taken their place and gladly died!
