13 years gone by. A 9/11 Poem. - September 11th 2014, 05:18 AM

This thread has been labeled as triggering by the original poster or by a Moderator. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.

"Thirteen years gone by."

Together we stand here,
Holding each other, hand in hand.
Deeply grieved, but still standing with pride,
To remember the innocent people,
Who died murderously planned.

Days pass and months go by,
Years fade as time goes on.
Memories will pass and fade away,
But this one will never be gone.

By a plane these men did,
Strike fear into us all.
Many people were able to run,
But the towers they did fall.

To later generations this will seem to be,
Another time in history that we can all forget.
Let it be known that from that day on,
There will be tears shed with regret.

The planes that took the towers down,
Hoped to take away our hope with their attack.
Little did they know that our strength would build,
And that we would stand and bounce back.

To the people who died in these horrid tragedies,
They were happy and never thought they'd die that day.
We will always remember them and that they've done,
They bodies may wither but their memory will never decay.

To the people died in the Pentagon,
From the change of direction and the hostile lash.
To the brave men and women who acted,
And saved many lives by making that plane crash.

To the brave people who ran inside,
Saving as many as they can through the fire.
Even when hope was dim and rubble falling down,
You put your lives through a situation so dire.

To the children that were orphaned because of this,
And the spouses that went home with tears in their eyes.
May you never let those people depart from your hearts,
As the smoke cleared and revealed blue skies.

Let God watch over us and keep us safe from harm,
And give us strength and courage to follow through.
Be strong through the rough and bravery under fire,
We stand together forever, may God be with us.

I have started writing poems on 9/11 about the events of that day.
These are all in honor of the people that lost their lives,
including two friends of mine. May they rest in peace.

I am so sorry that you lost people that day. We should all take a moment to remember those that were lost. This poem brought chills down my spine in a good way. This is absolutely beautiful. Keep up the good work. <3


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first

I am sorry to what happened to your friends. You can always PM me if you wanna talk.

This is a brilliant poem and a great tribute to what happened that time. I got told that it was horrible. I was 2, nearly 3 years old when that happened and I don't remember anything. My parents told me what happened when I asked them what everyone means with 9/11.

Wow, this has so much power in it. Stay strong, lovely. <3


Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
