9/11 And Now You're With The Angels


Seven years ago today,
I lost you all because some stupid coward
was too afraid to take just his own life,
so he took yours too,

You were blissfully unaware,
Flicking through your holiday snaps,
buying at the duty free,
you spoke to me on the phone
before boarding your plane,
you couldn't wait to get home to see me,
but you never got here,

You texted me 'I love you',
I was confused I was at home,
awaiting your flight, then I saw the news,
A flight had been taken down
by suicide bombers,

I remember thinking 'how terrible'
I didn't comprehend,
then I saw the flight number
and I froze;
Your flight,

Seven years later it's still so raw,
this day is so hard
but I feel you around me,
you're the sunshine around me today,
I never stopped loving you,
I'll miss you til forever,
but at least you're safe now....

    I'm glad I did return the favour because this is amazing. I had shivers down my spine and tears in my eyes, I guess just as I did the day seven years ago.
    This was perfectly portrayed. Well done!!!

    This is raw, passionate and heartfelt.
    I'm sorry for your loss Georgia
    Regardless of Faith and religion, from the Bible, to the Qu'ran...suicide is not accepted by whichever deity you believe in..so for them to say it was done in the name of God...is bollocks....That's merely my opinion though...
    Excellently penned hon, and I hope that one day, you feel some closure...
