Poem
On the beginning of that September day Our flag was wailing in the wind As we were to celebrate another day of our freedom Many lives were going to change forever In the most despicable, vile way Invaders came from the Middle East And offered to die to carry on a mission so radical Planes with terrorists’ came to the Twin Towers As people looked on from their televisions Pure shock was shown of their faces As the Twin Towers collapsed Screams of devastation could be heard As firefighters risked their lives to save others Love ones were lost and some of them perished They were our friends and family, and now they were gone Tears dripped down the faces of many people As we mourned together We were able to deal with this great loss But as we are all are of diverse ethnic groups We held our hands up together And prayed As we have been united since this horrible time There are still many pieces to put together This was the day our heroes were born All the firefighters and the people in the armed forces who defend freedom everyday To you the terrorists we’re just a country you despise But when you decided to attack us it wasn’t smart Your mission did not succeed What you tried to take from us is still in our grasp The freedom that each American has worked earn As our captain communicated with us He was trying to destroy our apprehensiveness Evidently we were trying not to burst into tears Many people remember that day as September 11th But I remember that day as Tears of Tragedy For United we Stand Divided we fall Many of us are still grieving or still angry But what occurred that September day could never be changed
