September Mourning

It started with a foundation
And grew from that point on.
It felt oh so inspiring
To see the windows tacked on.
It rose above the others
To the clouds above the world.
It stood as a symbol of light
Of trade, of freedoms untold.
It was at the very center
Of all our hearts and hopes
As we watched the citadels fall
The day the flags still rose.
We watched the windows shatter,
Their inspiration turned to fear.
We’ve seen it oh so many times,
For hours throughout the years.
Now we are rebuilding
And for it we will be proud.
The windows again will inspire
As it rises above the clouds.
It will be the very breath
And life for a world and a nation.
It’s hard to believe how strong we are now.
And it all started with a foundation.
