Today I found a poem I wrote in 2011 when I was 15. After seeing a documentary about the terrorist attacks on that fateful day I wrote this poem. The documentary focused on two men named Pablo and Frank who saved many lives and lost their own.
September 11, 2001
Armed with cruel hate
Against America the great
Crashing plane after plane
They all were insane
What did we do? You ask
To deserve that fatal task
We must all know
What ten years ago
Happened in that city.
The terrorists we don't pity.
Cast down like a hive
Those thousands of lives
Took the toll of the bell
When those buildings fell
The crash was so loud it was quiet.
There was no time for riot.
Two guys called Pablo and Frank
Many wish they could thank
Over 72
Lives started a new
For their wondrous acts of kindness.
Pablo & Frank were mindless
Of a possible selfish thought
Which Satan would have bought.
Those men were two of many
I wish I had a penny
For everyone who died
And every tear cried
Then I would give it to
All the families who
Had lost loved ones that day.
This is not all I could say
About our horrid world we live in
It is corrupt because of sin.
Come to the light
And dwell in His might
Who knew you before there was time.
Let us never forget.
