It Has Been Eight Years (Tribute To 9/11/01) Poem by Ronell Warren Alman

It has been eight years
But the thought of lives lost is stll there
Grief, pain, and sorrow lingers
The tears are still shedding everywhere
That day was filled with darkness
It all came about in a very unexpected manner
The World Trade Center crumbled to the ground
The dreams of some, sadly were shattered
Others in Washington D.C. and in Shanksville, PA
Suffered a great deal as well
No one will ever forget what happened on that day
It really felt like the day of hell
Some people did not know if they could go on with life
Others did not feel that they would ever get better
This terrorist attack on American soil
Has changed the world forever
