The day the world stood still

The lives of these two birds are about to end,

They look at each other and stare into their eyes,

They know it’s going to be over soon,

They feel unprepared and desperate;

The hunter wants revenge,

He knows what he wants,

He wants to shoot,

They know what’s coming;

He prepares to shoot,

He points at these two lives.

He wants to shoot,

He wants revenge;

The two birds separate,

They carry in them so much history,

They carry in them the lives of so many,

Two birds that wont make it;

Everyone knows,

But nothing is for sure,

No one understands,

The hunter wants revenge;

There is a crash,

There is fire,

Its the end and the beginning,

There is a cry;

The birds are gone,

And with them so many lives,

It looks like it’s all over now,

No one understands;

Two towers fall,

Lives are changed,

No one understands,

They just run;

People stare at their screens,

Tears fall down their eyes,

No one understands,

There is SiLeNcE.

In memory of all the people who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and all the people who's lives changed.
