Those Brave Men, My Son,

Watch them rush into the eye of danger.

Look at how they risk everything for those victims.

They do it for us, too.

Those Brave Men, My Daughter,

They may never come out of those buildings,

Thank these men every day for your safety,

And the safety of everyone as well.

Those Brave Men, My Father,

I see how they know that this is the real deal.

I see how they know that they will die.

And I wish I was with them, to fight.

The Planes and The Cowards, My Mother.

I watched as they shoved themselves into the side of those buildings.

My heart shattered when I realized what had happened.

And I feel like an empty shell, who's been filled with fear.

The Buildings, My Friends,

I watched as the were hit.

I watched as they fell to the streets.

And the sound of Shattering glass and bones could be heard for miles.

The Victims, My Enemies,

Do you see what you did to them?

Some burned in fire,

While others plumeted hundreds of feet to their death.

Those Brave Men, My Americans.

We must Remember their sacrifice.

We must respect how they fight for us.

And we must help them to achieve our own safety.

Remember 9-11.
