my hearts tower has been struck my face is crawling with tears my voice is stuck frozen be my worst fears
one million tons of weight coming down at once leaving me in a state of disbelief and distrust
people are falling on the ground and screaming in pain their falling all around again and again
smoke in the air black as night dust is everywhere blurry and white
im running away a rock falls and almost breaks my knee i hit the floor then a guy falls next to me rocks are falling everywhere and the guy looks at me and says what a terrible place to be i'm surprised i'm not dead i didn't reply i looked back thinking i wish i could just die my heart hurts my will is shrinking
a gigantic black cloud is charging my way its thundering and loud if only i could blow this one away
people run but i choose to stay it may not be a good choice but i think its better this way
fear is how i fall and i have fallen i will soon be dead but this i do not dread for it is not fear of death that caused this event it is the hateful acts of terror that have been sent they have violently struck the core of my heart i can't take it, it's tearing me apart please don't take this from me i may not die happy but at least i won't suffer for what would seem like an eternity
fear is how i fall and i have fallen
inspired by the Tragedy of 9/11. written from the perspective of a person very close to where the two towers fell.
