Together Taller

(Remembering 9/11)

The cries that swept the nation
Tears from weeping faces
Unallowable to forget
The images of the mourning
That forever changed creation.
Those whose last goodbye
In the age of innocent disguise
Still hover like a nightmare
Heard through balmy September
Taken from the sky.
An uneasiness of the mind
Thoughts confused in time
Stand silent to remember
The lives lost in the horror
As dreams and songs remind.
The world has never been smaller
Tragedy touching every heart
Those who wish for better
Won’t run in fear alone
But will walk together taller.
