September eleventh,
You are here.
Do you think
That other country cheered?
When the plane hit,
And many died,
Were they happy
As we cried?
The rest of the world
Is oblivious.
Though we’ll fight for them,
They don’t care for us.
Iraq didn’t just kill
All those on the plane.
They killed millions more,
And drove thousands insane.
Author notes
It's for all those with a loved one in the USAvsIraq war, or anyone who lost someone on 9/11. Hope you like it.

LOVING that part!!
I was lucky enough not to have known anyone personally, but I can tell you I shared the horror, I felt the fear, and the resilience you guys had.
We had an attack over here too, You had 9/11 then we had 7/7, in London, they bombed an underground, loads of people died, others survived, London went into Lockdown.
Think it was just a scare, to say to us that no-one is invincible...
You guys ain't forgotten, you know... -
