by: Robert "Bo" Golden At Zero There was a sound so deafening It could be heard around the world So loud It shattered our beliefs in despair At Zero There was a silence so deadly quiet You could hear a heartbeat But not a heartbeat could be heard Not even an echo At Zero The world was dust so thick You could not breathe if there had been any breath to take Any left to breathe At Zero A sea of tears threatened to drown us all Burn us with their salty brine And leave us naked to our fears Choking on our grief A nation came together, a nation grieved Held one another in weakened arms And drew strength enough to go on Maybe.... enough to heal In time, in time At Zero Where Heros perished and were born This I swear the solem truth A cloud of monarch butterflies suddenly appeared And flew into the smoke filled sky Like souls Finally set free In memory of September 11 2001 "I will never forget" Bo
