September Eleventh

Sirens lament, a September song Echoing sadness of memories so strong. Prayers for the souls of those taken away, Thoughts for the families, in our hearts to this day. Evening came early, the night stayed long. Morning started so bright, but went tragically wrong. Blue cloudness skies, the sound of a plane Eternal reminders bring that day back again Remember it all. Emergency crews, just ordinary guys Laid their lives on the line as hell rained from the skies Every last one of them selfless and brave Valiant heroes with one aim-to save Each one forever remembered with pride No hearts left untouched by the many that died. There's no lasting hope as the world now remembers Heartfelt wishes that peace could from those embers.
