M.E.M.

Towers in the Sky

I was not there when it happened.

I witnessed the plane hit. It was rapid.

The towers stood tall, but now they are flattened.

 

I was just one year old.

There were two other attacks, I was told.

Rescue workers were quick and bold.

 

I was far away from the events.

The belongings in my bag make up my parent\'s contents.

Who knows what all this devastation presents.

 

I hear about it every year on the anniversary.

I go to the memorial and grieve for my parents universally.

They ended up with cancer and needed surgery.

 

I don’t remember.

I saw it unfold like an ember.

We cleaned up after the events in September.
