September 11, 2001

On that fateful day

 

We lost many innocent lives

When the two planes hit the twin towers

It sent us into shock and confusion

Not knowing what was going on

Wondering if it was an accident or terroist attack

Everywhere everyone screamed and panicked

We watched in horror as people plummeted to their death from hundreds of feet

Fires burning from variouse levels

Many were told to stay put

That rescue would come,

 

But little did they know the crew would be wrong

Parts of the building, dust, ash, and smoke fell or poured through holes in the building

Many sacrificed their lives to save others

Phones stopped working

Papers from great heightes fell to the ground

You could hear disturbing cries for help

Relatives trying to phone in to see if loved ones survived

Everyone cried, scared for theirs and others lives

Friends call oue looking and searching for others

When the towers fell everyone ran for their lives

As we stood watching the television,

Or listening to the radio we gathered and cried

So many injuired and death on that sad, sad day

Family, friends, and coeworkers dead or trapped

Heart break filled everyone

Prayers were heard all over the world

To this day we have a moment of silence

For family, friends, and strangers all over the world,

For the brave men and woman.

We will NEVER forget that fateful day called 9/11.
