Twin 9/11


Why is this happening 

I was at home watcing the news

The man on the news looked grim

as he said

"We've been attack"

I panic and worried

Tried to make a call

To my loves

To listen to the beeps

On the other end of the line

I paced around trying to figure out

What to do next

I hanged up called the police

To find out my phone

Wasn't connecting 

I sat and closed my eyes and prayed

To God

As I watched a plane crash into the twin

And

Then another came as one twin went down

Then last goes down

But it's never over
