Risen Voices

A wonder why? What was the reason? Beyond any reasoning Remembrance of 9/11/2001 A day that was like yesterday, but unexpected A past with the skies clear, sunny and true Warning was on call with surprise The former Twin Towers were attached Two major Commercial airlines were used as missile jets New York City and the entire world that was on caution Onlookers petrified New York City was terrorized Yesterday with no purpose of a tomorrow Sorrow still has no morrow Closure always remembered Today the skies spell hope Heaven is the cope Embrace the past with the moment of lives loss Devastation ashes became risen We are who remain have a reason and purpose to carry on Remaining strong in togetherness We are the chosen survivors enriched to stand We can’t be stopped Destruction is not our reward Continuous striving We are protected by a Mighty Fortress, the Lord Terrorist thought they would win They wanted our Soul’s to end Heaven said, “I am the begin” I am the Mighty that can Wounds will never completely heal Heartfelt in some family members and friends gone Chosen few remain 9/11 always remembered We are the unforgotten promises in remember Even as we slumber We have a reason to live The loss being their sacrifice Risen Sunrise and Sunset Spotlights of living in divining hope Everlasting Soulful voices in the distance, always rise
