I Pray They See This Too! by Rwood
As it all crumbled
In deafening rumble
Glorified in the slow
Motion of your strike
But I also hope you saw
Rising in the fog
Of the disbelieving tragedy
People Helping People
No beliefs or boundaries
Holding back the hands
Emerging from a shattered land
Holding each other up
Tears remaining colorless
Blood remaining red
Bonds being made in the dust
In trust of fellow man
As we scream in harmony
Of the pain
Being all the same
Except for you
Be it known
We have called all Captains of Life
We will continue to pray
And feel our way in Navigation
By a much higher power
Than yours that must slay it
Your death sentence has made us stronger
You have colored yourself a failure
I pray you see it coming
And have no where to hide.

Publicized around the world, we all watched in horror. The ones that did this may have felt glorified. They may have even gloated. I am proud to say that what I saw rising out of the rubble was far more than anyone expected.
This poem describes what I also saw, aside from the horrific. What I hope they also see coming.

I think this poem is beautiful. I also have a poem I'm looking to put on here. This poem touched me very deeply. I cried. My uncle also died in the tragedy. Getting the phone call was the hardest thing I've had to do in my life. He was only 34. I still miss him dearly even though it's been almost three years. It's still very very hard. I can't blieve he died in such a tragic way. My heart will be broke forever. When I saw the towers on the news when I came home from school it felt like a dream. I instanly started to think about my uncle. Waiting for the news was very hard. This poem desrves 10/10. It's very well written. Well done! - stephanie |
