The tears that fell on that day
Mountain of ash
Sky of smoke
Grey
The ones who were lost
The ones who lost them
Even the stars cry
Black
Hatred
Hurt
Sadness
Fear
Confusion
A world of emotion
But every action has an equal and
Opposite reaction
Hatred turned to empathy
Sadness turned to hope
Through fear many showed courage
Bravery
Confusion became acceptance
And though the deepness of hurt
Could never be lightened
Defiance
Refusal to give victory emerged
Through the ashes
What was meant to tear us apart
Worked...at first
Until it bound is together tighter than before
Always remember
Courage
Sacrifice
Love
Kindness
That is what this day is about.
