Help

A normal September day, people unaware of what was going to be done,
some were at work and some were just out for a day of fun.
Walking around the streets of New York and up to the twin towers,
who would know that such a little country had so much power?
Months of planning and strategizing on what would happen on this day,
the terrorists took off in a plane.
Innocent people aboard, just trying to get home to their family and loved ones,
but the Iraqis had something else in mind for them which in their mind had to be done.
People aboard thinking they were coming in for a landing,
they had no idea that that landing was in a building.
Screaming for help, but no one came,
this was no fun, it is not a game.
Peoples mangled bodies were removed from the rubble,
we knew that our people were in trouble.
People watched in terror, whether on the streets or in their homes,
tears dropped from our eyes, so many funerals were planned and some loved ones were never coming home.
Volunteers and firefighters arrived at the spot,
they would not let these bodies rot.
What they did was not right,
for our people, we had to fight.
George bush went to Iraq with an army and started a war,
for the day that so many peoples hearts were torn.
Some agreed with this and some did not,
but no matter what, this war had to be fought.
They would pay for their sins,
because in the game of life or death nobody wins.
They caught him and he is dead,
but for those that happened to be lost, they will always be on my mind, and i will pray for them every night beside my bed.
9-the month of September
1-1-the eleventh day on which every year we will remember,
9-1-1, a call for help,
with this kind of thing we have never dealt.
I do not live in the united states,i am a Canadian,
but this is my cry for help in thinking and praying that this will never happen again.
So for those who do experience their losses, my prayers are with you and your families,
i cry my tears for you,
my heart beats for you,
i live my life for you...hoping that one day i will experience the satisfaction of seeing those who did this go down.
In my prayers and my thoughts,
September 11, for their mistakes they will be taught.
