The Lost Lives

The darkness in the sky
And the sadness in peoples eyes
The people crying for help
Firefighters saving lives
some not making it
some people losing 
love ones
The rumbling of the 
buildings
The burning smell of the towers
people screaming in fear
Kids scared out of there minds
people not knowing what to do

This is a very sad store of 9/11

I was so traumatized watching the towers fall. I was far away, watching it live on Television. Your poem brings back that terrible moment when we lost our sense of safety!
