Sep 2016
It was 15 years ago today
September 11, 2001 being the day
World Trade Towers had two uninvited guest
It was devastation terrorist being their request
Total lives all caught off guard
Commotion into confusion
Heritage becoming a legacy
The everlasting thought, “Let us never forget”
Yet the emptiness having plenty of regret
Sunny skies with questionable hearts
Souls that were risen up
Today being always reflect
Remembering the moments
Reflecting on the seconds
The aftermath being a chapter of ******
Souls of enduring love in always be encouraged
It’s a new day with the warmth of sunshine
Determination has built a new world trade
The sun still shines, and there is no fade
Soul’s look down
The living has eyes in looking up
A missing heart in knowing where the tears fall
Not a day goes by I hear the fallen call
But it is inspiration for all
My own name could have been read from the fallen list
No time to even give that last time a final kiss
Yet live we must and having Faith in trust
Rise and stand
Observe Heaven’s watch
External with deep thoughts in remembering
Our tomorrow has made us wise
Rise up, rise up and continue to rise up my children
You have living to do, but don’t ever give up.
