We lift our heads
And forge on
Atleast that's what
God wants for all of us
A day of rememberance
A celebration of life
A day to shed our tears
For those who lost their lives
Each one still clinging
Onto our memories
Each one still held near
To our hearts
As we relive
The twins collapsing to the ground
Sucking the very breath
From our lungs
And our souls
We lift our heads
And forge on
Atleast that's what
Our loved ones want for all of us
A day of remeberance
A celebration of life
A day to be strong
For those who lost their lives
And for those who are still alive...

~God Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference~

We will always remember

thank you for these words

You are a good poet as soon as you try to reach others with your words.
You are a great poet when those same words touch your heart first.
