A September 11th poem.

Chapter 1 - In Just A Second

Chapter 1 - In Just A Second

In Just A Second

In just a second,
Your life could change.
In just a second,
Nothing would be the same.

In just a second,
Your world could collapse.
In just a second,
You couldn’t turn back.

In just a second,
You couldn’t say good-bye.
In just a second,
The ones you love could die.

In just a second,
Without caring or knowing
In just a second,
Your grief would be growing.

In just a second,
A tear rolls down your face.
In just a second,
You realize what took place.

In just a second,
You know about the planes.
In just a second,
You know nothing will be the same.

In just a second,
People come to your aid.
In just a second,
You realize the price you just paid.

In just a second,
You search for the ones you love.
In just a second,
You pray to God to send angels from above.

In just a second,
You realize they’re gone
In just a second,
You never thought a second could be so long.

TariTroiWow. I'm impressed by this. I remember my class wrote poems for the 9/11 attacks. Mine sucked. I still got it lying around somewhere. This was wonderful.
