September 11th
What is hidden in your heart all these years later
Is there regret for what happened then
it feels like the world died that day
A world we knew and understood
Some of us have chosen to forget
Some have taken their own life full of despair
If tragedy struck again
Would we be prepared and save the world from dying
protect our families and neighbors any way we could
Would we hide in our homes and keep to ourselves
Or would we help again despite all that has passed
We have no answers now of course but think of it
The ones who passed that day had no chance to think or plan
The memory of every lost soul of that day shall never be forgotten
