We Can’t forget

You are there, no questions asked
You are high on our list, but on yours, you are the last
You are there whenever you hear a call
We can’t forget that you did fall

Fear, a word you know
But for you it’s not to show
Fearless you entered not knowing your fate
We can’t forget and now it’s too late

We can never repay for what you have done
You went in - one for all and all for one
We can never give you back your life
We can’t forget the suffering families and your wife

Your only thoughts are to help and save
For this noble task your life you gave
The falling towers became your grave

We can’t forget, and shall never do
For all you have done
We
Thank you

My deepest condolences to all Families, my heart goes out to you. My deepest condolences also to all of you, the man that day in and out risks their lives to save others.
There is nothing that I can do, but to deeply thank you
For that what you do.

My friends, I would like to say thank you for your kind words. I am still not over what all just happened and what might yet to come. I read a lot and found that the most important thing to do is "To tell you that I love all of you".
