Poem
September-16 & 17-2002 Trisha M. Barrek Hopkins Dedicated to those of 9/11 The day the angels cried We lost our life and our pride The day the angels cried Is the day we lost our children, husband, and wives What has changed? The strength of the world, our lives Its been rearranged The one above He'll help us through All we can do is love The ones we adored and knew For that's what they would want Even though that day will always haunt Things happen for a reason God please help us understand The right to our freedom We feel trapped and need a helping hand When the angels cried I knew how they felt They had let themselves down And didn't know the cards that have been dealt And all they can do now is ware a frown People feel so defenseless Yes our lives have changed And the ones we lost We will always miss We will make things work at any cost Within your self remember No one can take our faith Because every September The world comes together we remain sane and safe The day the angels cried The enemy went to hide But the world became strong And soon enough we'll find Those who did wrong As we pray for those who died We will remember always The day the angels cried For that's the day we came as one to pray In our changing lives They will always be in our heart September eleventh was a day of a new start The day we all came together The day for everyone to care For the strangers we didn't know This day will be on our minds forever The enemy don't want to mess with us They don't dare Because no mercy towards them will we show Trisha M.
