It was a day that started out just like any other one
We never dreamed America could come under attack
It seemed an enemy had slipped through a crack
Who knew they would come from behind our back
They sucker punched us, this was a fact
A day Americans thought could never come
No one thought for a second America could ever come undone
For we all thought America was the mightiest one
We never stopped to think it could actually be done
Two of our own planes came crashing down
It certainly was a horrrendous sound
People running for their lives all around
No where to run, No where to hide
Into the twin towers they did collide
Taking with them some of America's pride
Thousands of people still trapped inside
Not even having a safe place to hide
Hundreds of firefighters and volunteers rushed inside
To them it wasn't a matter of pride
Only did they think of the people still inside
America now was in a shear panic
This was much worse than the sinking of the Titanic
We watched the towers as they fell
We knew that all inside were going through a living hell
For as of yet no one could tell,
Wether or not any would make it out alive and well
Leaveing all of America to wonder why
So many people that day had to die
The day those planes came down form out of the sky
Our only unanswered questions, Who and Why?
Not a single rock in the rubble was left unturned
Not a single thing left unburned
For all our lost loved ones America still yearned
For this was a lesson that must be learned
Our hearts go out to each and everyone
We all knew now what must be done
We knew the job wasn't going to be an easy one
Osama Bin Laden must now pay for what he has done!
We must fight the enemy one by one
We must join together now,,,,,,,Everyone
We all knew our government had glitches,
but we never thought it would leave America with so many stitches
As for time, we know we can't turn back
We know now is the time for our government to act
For we know now to always watch our back
We must be ready, if there is ever another attack
For all the lost souls on 9/11
We pray each one of you made your way to heaven
As for all Americans we must stand together
Face our enemy even in the stormiest weather
We must stand together as one
Fight the enemy until it is completely done
Then and only then, will America have truly won

Lisa Westervelt Poem
If only you were here with me
I know your love could set me free
A love like ours is hard to find
A love like ours should not go on blind
As for your hugs, I miss them so
Seems like it was all so long ago
My true feelings, I think you should know
I think about you all the time
Can't seem to get you off my mind
Our love to me, was one of a kind
A love like that is hard to find
Each time i see you I know I can't hide
The love for you I still feel inside
To you I must make a plea
Take my heart and set it free
With you, is where I truly want to be
For every time I see you, I can still feel the sparks fly
For when you leave, I feel like I want to cry
As I wipe a small tear from the corner of my eye
I know now, my love for you will never die

Lisa Westervelt Poem
Now that your gone
All my smiles seem to have gone away
I can't seem to make it through an entire day
With God's help I just may
Make through the following day
Everyday I sit and wonder why the good Lord had to take you away
I go over it and over it, just trying to see his way
but much to my dismay
I still wonder why the good Lord had to take you away
Now for your soul I can only pray
Your memory will always be with me through each passing day
Just please Lord show me the way
I'll try to go on and live my life
without you my dear sweet wife
I miss you so not being here in my life
If only you were still here by my side
I know I could get through this torturous tide
Then I wouldn't feel the toture so deep inside
When memories of you in my head collide
I have to stay strong so I can regain
For without you I must try to bear the pain
Knowing your memory will always remain
I will cherish always just the same
Life must go on as before
but without your sweet smile we all adored
I wish once more I could hear your sweet voice
but as for that, we were given no choice
He took away
Before I had another chance to say
I loved you in every possible way
Your love will always be here with me to stay
My love for you I could never measure
Your memory deep down in my heart forever
Your love will always be my treasure
Now that you're gone
