"Remembering September"
Help!-
One building then another.
An Inferno blazing like the Sun,
as a Cloud of darkness engulfs the city.
Millions left speechless-
as the lives of two thousand seven hundred and fifty-three loved ones are taken.
Piercing screams and hysterical cries-
someone else dies.
Something that no one could forget.
“We will Never Forget”
Left with the memories of sirens that could be heard for miles-
with a faint flashing of blue and red.
A great tragedy only lasting seventeen minutes-
felt like an eternity.
The Towers that once stood…
did indeed fall.
