We Will Never Forget

(09/11/11)

Ten years later and we still feel the pain 
So many innocent lives was taken that day.
The memories of  our brave forces running to
Save a life, not thinking of themselves
Or the sacrifice.
 
And the twin towers Falling to the ground
 And hearing Peoples screams and every type of sound,
The sounds of the buildings collapsing 
and the sounds of metal starting to bend.
Will it ever stop? Will it ever end?

These are just a few of the memories 
that stay in our minds, and they will
Last till the ends of time.

Over three thousand lives were taken 
And they say that 343 of them were firemen and women
And police officers who gave their lives that day
And we honor them, in all that we do and say.

Seeing the white dust that covered every street.
And the clouds of smoke that billowed to the skies
These are the memories that will stay with you and I.

For each American there is a different memory
