Remember 9/11
Thirteenth anniversary of 9/11
is here with memories
of evil tragedy, when blood,
sweat and tears was shed right here in N.YC.
Many lives were lost
when evil reigned on that day.
Many lives laid
broken hearted, with many children
cried after mommy and daddy died
as they asked why ?
A nation grieved and asking
why so many had to die.
Our minds drifted back in time
to 9/11, which is forever on
our minds.
Towers once so tall and noble
fell so low as a nation was humbled.
We still remember the firemen, police,
EMS, and Port Authority police too.
Many still remember the brave things
they did as our hearts were torn.
But our spirit did live on.
We did see what evil did
but remember the Phoenix bird
that did burn and did arise again.
Just like our spirit was reborn again,
in you and I as our spirit
was raised high again.
