Sitting in a classroom
in the fourth grade
Wondering why everyone was so frightened that day.
Hadn't learned of towers
or fires or planes.
My only question was
Why is everyone leaving class today?
Six people later I was gone too.
Taken to the shore, far from the boom.
From that moment on our lives had changed.
Pictured in our minds the photos of that day.
Tower one going down,
and then tower two.
How upsetting it was to see nightmares come true.
Fathers who said their last goodbyes,
and mothers who still to this day have their cries.
Still people missing,
only a few found alive.
But as for the others I say my goodbyes.
Sitting in a classroom,
In the tenth grade,
Wondering if we will ever lose fear from that day.
