Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow

Yesterday, innocence lost to faceless enemy
We watch in awe as planes destruct,
stunned in disbelief.
Taking innocent lives,
bodies falling from the sky.
The innocent being killed, buried alive.
People with faces, names.
Mother’s, Father’s, Family and friends.
Today, I awoke early with tears in my eye’s
rolling down my cheeks.
The alarm to wake me finally went off,
It was playing,
” I’m Proud to be an American.”
Then, I said another prayer today.
For all the lives that have been lost
and for the strength of all the others.
Thankful for the USA.
Yesterday now a memory,
Tomorrow we may never see
Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow.
