The Day America's Heart Began to Decay

Sept. 11, 2001

 

It was a bright and sunny day when America's heart began to decay. No one would have imagined what the day had in store. Would have even imagined all the bodies lying on the floor. People trying to escape running for their lives. The building's shock and then one by one lives were took. People cried not knowing what else to do. Wondering who was killed. Was it someone close to you. How could someone take so many lives. One act of senselessness make millions of people cry. Heroes went in to save someone else. Not even taking time to protect themselves. As people sat and cried people came together hugging, wiping each other's eyes. You can feel bad but remember to pray. But everyone will always remember the day America's heart began to decay.

 

 

 

Undated

 

As I heard horrifying stories about people jumping from windows. I think about millions of people watching America's heart start to kindle. Watching grown men cry was truly a site for young one's eyes. Everyone being glued to the TV Me wondering how could God let this be. I know question God is not the right thing to do. But who can answer these questions certainly not me, can you...

 

 

PITCH BLACK

Sept. 12, 2001

 

Imagine being in a room that is pitch black can't see anything, but you can hear things behind your back. You turn around toward the sound. Wondering what's there? Who's around. Being scared to do anything. Then all of a sudden you can see something. A streak of light a little hope. That little hope makes you feel like you can float. You hear someone they say they're coming to get you. Then all of a sudden something crumbles on top of you. You're still alive but in so much pain you wish you would die. Hours and hours it has been wandering when they going to save you. Are they even coming. They take the sad off of you. They look at you wondering if you're alive and what to do. They pick you up and rush you off. To a nearby ambulance with experts experience just for this cause. As you're losing consciousness you think about what's gonna happen next. When you wake up all you can think about as you sat was that terrifying room that was pitch black.

 

 

LOST

Sept. 12, 2001

 

Thousands of people are lost. What is America gonna do. How much is it gonna cost. People are not prank calling schools. How could people be such fools. Many people are still missing. Lovebirds are no longer kissing. Imagine being in a city so noisy. Is not considered dead in a ghost city. How long will it be until things are back to the way they used to be. Thinking this has touched everyone personally.

As I sit here and watch my sister's boyfriend look for his brother who is lost. I think about how much the rebuilding is going to cost. As people are being pulled out of the rubble, I think about how one's stupidity caused so much trouble. I can't believe we're going to go to war. All I think about is the heroes missing much more than before. As I watch the tears fall from my mother's eyes, I think about the black smoke covering the skies. All I can think about is what tomorrow has in store. What will the body can't show hopefully not more and more.
