There was a day that I don't remember well.
One of sorrow, and of pain.
When people lost loved ones, and our heroes sacrificed everything.
A day when people passed away.
There was a day that I don't remember well
One that caused our world to be shaken.
When we went to war, and fought for our rights.
A day we went to bed in tears that night.
There was a day I don't remember well
One I've heard stories about for years
When our country banded together and trembled from the fear.
A day we will never forget.
9/11 happened 10 years ago when I was 6 years old. I can honestly say I don't remember much about it. I remember my dad telling me that two really big buildings burned down, and I vaguely remember seeing a video of it. I really don't know if that's true though. It could have been a TV special from when I was a little older.
I've always known that 9/11 was a very sad day for our country. I don't think I've ever really stopped to think about it or maybe it was never fully comprehended until now. It makes me very thankful for my country, and the freedoms I have that I take for granted every day.
It's just something to think about...
