Our glory hides under the crumbled remains,
Of two towers of strength, now blocking road lanes,
Two buildings of wonder, such a beautiful sight,
Destroyed, destructed, left us in fright.
What was the cause of building suicide?
But a single man that continues to hide,
Continues to hide…
A disgrace to our country, our nation and hearts,
That collapsed and crumbled, as walls fell apart,
We remember this night for the rest of our time,
And hope in the future, power does not decline,
From the midst of the people, a small girl before bed,
Whispering, “ I wish they would catch him, he needs to be dead.”

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Janna, your young heart beams with such strength and compassion, dearest friend, I still pray for all the families up to this day and always will as I hope that the world can come together and we can non-violently protect the world from the tears! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Janna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Jaysh -- I agree, we will never forget.  I cannot even find the words to pen emotions that have resulted from this tradgedy.  None here were shielded from having innocence stripped.  Well done.
