Stand Tall

Stand Tall

A Poem by Mariah

 

On September eleventh

Not so long ago

Our country was attacked

Our hearts filled with sorrow

 

Whether we saw it ourselves

Or were somewhere far away

We were all shocked and frightened

On that very tragic day

 

You can believe that it’s impossible

Until you discover the truth

You don’t realize it can happen

Until it happens to you

 

We are told we have to move on

Keep living our lives, and yet-

We will stand tall as Americans,

And we will never forget.
