You are not forgotten
Never fear it’s true
So long as I have breath in me
I’ll remember you

Your life was taken, not by choice
By those who lost their way
Three thousand lives, sacrificed
Freedom’s price to pay

Know that those you left behind
Do not mourn alone
We, your country, shelter them
Mercy will be shown

Fifty countries shared this grief
The whole world shocked and stunned
Our hearts forever changed that day
Our trust in Man, undone

And when the Day of Judgment comes
When Truth and Justice reign
All those Angels lost that day
Will smile down again.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
