Twin towers standing tall
Tragedy hits and then they fall
People screaming, everyone running
Not truly knowing what was coming
Angels of death, on wings of hate
No tomorrow, no plans to make
The good suffering for the wrong
Unexpected when they left home
Planes crashing and buildings crumbling
Hopes, dreams, and bricks tumbling
Genocidal tendencies at pilots’ hands
Destroying a nation any way they can
Man, woman, boy, and girl
If they could, would instantly destroy the world
Mid-day news brings shock and pain
Announcing we won’t see our loved ones again
Some were found, some were lost
No matter who, they paid the cost
Obituaries typed, hearses rolling
In the winds half-staffed flags are blowing
Graves are dug, tombstones placed
So loved ones remains can be traced
We never will forget where we were
When this catastrophe occurred
In our hearts we will always remember
What happened 2001 11th day of September
