9/11 -- Reflecting

So many innocent lives lost in a moment’s time.
Snatched away from us and it’s effects will last a lifetime.

Your death, we prayed for God to deliver our thoughts.
Lonely days and lonely nights are still ripping at our hearts.

You touched us so and we see you in everything that we do.
Whether we’re alone or with family, you are there but we still miss you.

Celebrating, no. Remembering, yes.
Reflecting on your life with us. Remembering, the best of the best.

This poem is dedicated to the families whose lives were forever changed. And to all who remember that day as if it were yesterday.

  1. Very nice poem Phenola! I'm from NYC and lost people I knew in the towers. It's not something we're bound to ever forget.
