American Terror

Based on 9/11 - written a few months afterwards.

American Terror:

Was it only yesterday
That America was fine
Until this unforseeable tragedy?
Two planes crashing,
People frightened to go outdoors!
Why should it be like this?
Innocent people dying -
Their friends and family back home,
Wandering whether they're all right.
Flowers and dedications everywhere
Paying their last respects
And their good wishes
To all those in America.
I wish there was more to do -
But instead they're with us in prayers.
Let us pray for them -
Please let it not come to war.
If you ever need someone to turn to,
We are all here for you.
You are not alone -
We are all together - remember that.
Our thoughts are with you
And hope that your freedom
Is found once more.
You need all the luck in the world.
Let us hope it's all over soon.
