My thoughts about 9/11 on the fifth anniversary of the attacks where there is still a void in the ground as well as in loved ones hearts.
Side by Side
Side by side they stood,
A mirror of the other
A passing equal to
Ones mother, ones father.
Now both are gone,
We face the void
Silence accompanies the wind.
There is no hand left to join the other.
Their beauty remains in our hearts
A couple has died side by side,
Our meeting was as brief as a hummingbirds pause.
