Attack

by

Laura Beth Leither

Devastation, fear, uncertainty
It's all hit us hard
Why couldn't they have seen
How much we'd all be scarred?
I'm sure it was their goal
For they just didn't care
About the country we've all known
And always tried to share
They came in out of nowhere
And took us by surprise
Destroyed our World Trade Center
Right before our very eyes
Could this have been prevented?
Or was it a lost cause?
Was anything accomplished
Now that the world's on pause?
Did so many have to die?
Are they even through with us?
Will this all end in time?
Can we reestablish trust?
Unanswered questions flood us all
The great country we used to be
Has now began to break and fall
Despite that we're considered free.
