In Memory Of September 11

September 11 2001 marked a tragic event in the battle of modern freedom. The attacks that day left a world in mourning, with the impact and destruction lasting still to this moment.

I'm not an American, nor did I suffer any personal loss, but for the first time in years our family united together after these attacks. This memorial is dedicated to the police and security officers, firefighters, emergency personal, medics and brave men and women who suffered on this horrible day in history.

The terrorists took alot from the world September 11, but they never will take our hope, freedom, love and strength. Please share your thoughts and remember these 3,000 plus innocent people, who lost their lives.

Freedom flies in America
where all go their separate way.
Till September 11th without a single word
our country unites in one day.
Freedom rages in America
as hatred takes a very painful toll.
When so many lives were so viciously stolen
by the jealousy of a man's evil soul.
Freedom cries in America
leaving thousands of kids husbands and wives,
wishing they'd said I love you that day
before terrorists claimed their loved ones lives.
Freedom costs in America
for a price that will never ever heal.
At first the eagle had a tear in his eye
now he's madder than hell.
Freedom sings in America
with the words coming straight from the heart.
These songs are sung with such tearful pride
and from this we'll never part.
Freedom says thank you America
to our armed forces we honor so proudly.
That beautiful flag will forever wave
and united we will always be.
