There are times these days,
That the beauty escapes me,
The rainbow is engulfed in gray,
The sadness is all I see.
The dark side of it all,
Not sny silver lining.
Tears begin to fall,
Aching heart, sobbing, whining.
Time is supposed to heal it all,
Yet my wound feels fresh.
I cannot ever recall,
Feeling such pain to my flesh.
There is an emptiness in my heart,
One that shall never heal,
From lives torn apart,
By a pill head at the wheel.
My best friend, my sister too,
My family, my hope you were.
Nickie, I still miss you,
Your heart so pure.
What did we do to deserve such an act
that lead to this horrible attack
We did not harm you well, not until now
but you deserve every round
You killed may in just one day
two towers fell which we thought would stay
Our sorrow our grief will always stay
it will never go away
You thought we were dead but were much alive
now were ready to take that strive
We took our vengeance loud and proud
no one could stop us not even a crowd
But yet we returned to fix our damages
we brought apples and pears and water and banages
You started this flight
now get prepared to fight
Will see you on the battle field
our sorrow our anger shall be our shield
We pray to god to lead this nation
and not lead us in sny extra temptation
