9/11

by cant sleep   Sep 11, 2005


Oh where were u? that day the towers fell 6 feet under?
Where were you? That day the earth made a sound like thunder?
When the black smoke rose into the sky,
Where u standing wondering why?

Oh I know u care.
I know u do.
I know you wonder, what if it happened to you.
I wish that day never happened,
But I know there’s nothing we can do.
Oh no, nothing we can do but wonder.

I was in school, learning’ about history.
My principle came on the intercom.
He said something horrible had happened.
And the kid next to me, lost his mom.

Where were you, standing in the corner.
Where were you?
Asking for your mother?
Where were you, watching the towers fall down?
where were you, when help was on the way?

Its not done yet, but it’s a work in process.
