Never Forgotten
The eerie sound of rumbling and cries coming from the street as the day turns clouded with dust and debris.
Sirens blaring, chaos ensuing. A day of sadness and a city coming together in the face of tragedy.
The memory of falling angels and blackness in lower Manhattan as firefighters run to help the innocent.
Seventeen years later, the depth of emotion still consumes our souls.
Names read every year on the day, by a weeping family member.
Sleepless nights and sorrow for family still waiting to hear if their loved one’s remains are found, never forgetting September 11th, 2001.
