The Message 9/11 Part Three

“THE MESSAGE 9/11 PART THREE

I can see the smoke
And the waste that’s left
I can hear the forklifts
Screeching in the depths

I can see the rubble
Being carried away
I can see, and hear this
Every single day

But there is something else
That I cannot see
As my eyes reach the river
Heading out to sea

I cannot touch it
But I can feel it there
It sways back and forth
Up and down in the air

As I move away
It surrounds my being
As if to communicate
Without ever seeing

It does not scare me
I’m beginning to understand
They are aware of our grief
All over this land

The Message they’re sending
Is directed to us all
“THAT LIFE”, MUST GO ON
AND FOR US TO STAND TALL.
