I'm laughing
I'm singing
I'm dancing
I'm grinning
Like a fool,
Like a maniac,
Yet it's not because of the sugar
It may be because I'm kinda tired
But you made me grin
By what you told me
*Thank you
To the person who told me I'm too awesome not to like and making me laugh at one in the morning. Thank you.
Planes crashing
Towers exploding
News covering
Tears forming
Men falling
Videos created
Uprise roaring
The whole world
Watches
Waits
In baited breath
Death all around
It started with a hijacking
Or maybe a bit before
But we are resilient
Brave
*We shall NOT be brought down screaming
I am currently studying a poem based of off 9/11 and formed this in my head while reading it. Although it doesn't quite capture the true emotion by this particular event, I hope it gets that across.
This messed up world
full of cheats and liars
say they're truthful
well their pants are on fire.

This messed up world
everythings out of whack
They say just to sprint
they just ran off the track.

This messed up world
some go, some stay
all thinking its for the best
each going their own wrong way.

This messed up world
war is threatened and stabbed
while walls go down, more walls go up
each having their own shade of bad.

This messed up world
it spins round and round, tick tock
we try to try, we hope it’s fine
oops, we just smashed the clock.
