Damaged

We have suffered a tragedy
Our world is torn apart
Sadness is in our eyes
Fear is in our hearts

We have lost so much at their hands
They took so many lives
So many have lost loved ones
Brothers, sisters, husbands, and wives

My heart goes out to all who have lost
I shed tears for those who have died
I reach out for the orphaned children
I thank GOD for those who made it out alive

We have to pray for our nation
We have to help each other along
We cannot let them win
We have to be strong

To all who have lost on September 11, 2001
