The timeline being September 11, 2001
The place was New York City
A city that was shown no pity
The day warm, clear cloudless skies and Sunny
It has always been said, quite it before the storm
But it was a day of pure unexpected
Destruction that came swift
Nothing to do but response
The drama that became straight like a movie action screen
Commercial Airliners were like missiles in a war
The only differences, witnesses actually saw
The target were the previous Twin Towers 1 and 2
The first Commercial Airliner attacks tower 2 with a mass explosion
Employees working in that building made their escape, while others in attempt perished
Some were stuck in Elevators
Some even jumped out of windows to their death
Precision had another plan, another Commercial Airliner pummels into Tower 1,
First tower 2 felt and then tower 1 in hours
Meanwhile, below on the streets, people were running, screaming and crying with what seemed like a war within the downtown area of New York City
But the reality was, who did such an evil act, but would there be a tomorrow
The act was Middle Eastern Terrorist Group
Nothing but sorrow after sorrow
I am telling this as of information, I was suppose to work on the 103rd floor of Tower One for a company, but the company felt I was overqualified
For me that was a blessing in disguise
I did witness Tower 2 get hit from my job on the 14th Floor
It was like seeing a Movie Screen 3D
Everyone was a star in this actual reality
But the ashes have cleared, and rebuilding has been done and complete
The scars being a reminder, β€œNever Forget”
Lives loss
New York City felt the force in grief
But could a terrorist act surface again on New York City
Be watchful and observe the skies
Heaven is in charge
But do observe into the possibilities
