The Tragic Day

Two towers stood alone while a day emerge into history as memorable events 
gaze among the future 
Burning fires grew, grew as the towers blazed with yellow sparks as many of 
those died
Planes flew all directions but that terrifying tragedy blew away people's minds 
into great disaster
The many faces of President Bush gazed into tragic war that had started it all 
But the end might be here but it just terrified all to stay here to the bitterly end
