Never Forget
we all spend a day to focus on death
always remember when I rather forget
hate and evil is all around us
it's even in our own homes
so I spend this day praying for the dead
wishing for a world of understanding
till then I’ll just live for the moment
that way when I go
I can say I have no regrets
I roll my eyes at ignorance
even my own
the thought of lives lost is great
the thought of love lost is harder
couldn't imagine the what if’s
how painful it would be to know it’s the end
its hard to imagine that anyone
would intentionally cause that kind of pain
so many lies and conspiracy theories
I only think of the families
the little girls and boys
growing up with out a mom or dad
when I think back to where I was on 9/11
I was reciting the national anthem in class
was told afterwards about the tragedy
they had us watch the newscast
watched as bodies fell
how can anyone forget that
I wish I could
