September Eleventh
Sirens lament, a September song
Echoing sadness of memories so strong.
Prayers for the souls of those taken away,
Thoughts for the families, in our hearts to this day.
Evening came early, the night stayed long.
Morning started so bright, but went tragically wrong.
Blue cloudness skies, the sound of a plane
Eternal reminders bring that day back again
Remember it all.
Emergency crews, just ordinary guys
Laid their lives on the line as hell rained from the skies
Every last one of them selfless and brave
Valiant heroes with one aim-to save
Each one forever remembered with pride
No hearts left untouched by the many that died.
There's no lasting hope as the world now remembers
Heartfelt wishes that peace could from those embers.
