"911"    9 - 12 - 01



One by one

they tumble down

i watch them all

hit the ground

unimaginable pain

only for a moment

ended in a flash

i still watch, aghast

the man next to me

cannot believe his eyes,

thought decieved

I look back at the scene

another one down

how could this happen

to us, of all people

we once thought

ourselves invincible

now I watch as they die

yet I live, I can only cry
