9/11

10 Years Ago...

I was 14

I was in Mr. Hale's English class in the basement of HJH

I was mad I had woken up late that day

My mom called me and said a plane had hit one of the Twin Towers

"Mom, planes hit builds all the time. I have to go!" and hung up

Expect this wasn't like anything America had ever seen before...

I walked into class just 'in time' to see the 2nd tower fall.

I heart fell too.

Another plane had crashed into the Pentagon

and another in a field in PA.

Why is this happening??

I feared for my own life

even though I was miles and miles away

I felt bad I was so angry at my mom.

I had a chance to tell her I was sorry,

but those people... They'll never be seen again.

Again, Why?? I just don't get what's going on.

God help those people.

For days afterward, there were glimmers of hope.


Like this....

God Bless America, the land that I love.
