9/11
I am in a daze,
the world phasing out, spinning by
as my mind tries
to come to terms with reality.
Disaster beyond belief,
so horrible it is unreal.
An act of terrorism;
the threat of war.
All of a sudden
it means something to be Canadian,
yet there is always that risk,
that slim chance...
The sun shines and I breathe,
a gift so easily snatched away.
In one moment of hatred
the world and life as we know it
has been changed forever.
We will never change.-September 11, 2001
