In Memory Of

by Steelknight



Those who touched our souls, lives taken, yet they
will be within our hearts forever.

September 11th, will forever be a day of loss, of
tragedy, of above all strength.

It was a day that brought us all together, friends,
family, strangers.

We all felt the loss, the heartache that will never
be healed.



A day filled with heroes,

Those who gave their lives trying to save others,
never thinking of their own danger.

Those who refused to give up in the face of such
heartbreak, valiantly fighting on.

Those who worked to help the survivors of the attacks,
physically and mentally.

Those who cried daily without shame, searching the
ruins to bring closure for those left behind.



Lives still grieved for.

Lives that were sadly much too short, stolen from
those who loved them.

Lives that broke the heart of a nation and the world.

Lives that will live forever in history and more
importantly in our heart.



A year later we not only remember their loss, we
remember their courage.

The day total strangers reached out to each other,
giving each other comfort.

We remember September 11th, it is etched forever in
our hearts and souls.

We always will.
