SKYLINE OF BROKEN DREAMS

 Our nation who often helps others,
Despite it’s own internal conflicts,

Attacked by those who envy,
Brought forth their evil greed,

Filling our states with their unspeakable horror, 
Leaving behind rubbles of what was once goodness,
Abandoned among shambles, what once was solid,

Uprooting innocent lives,
Many forever lost,

Left but shock, tears, vengeance,
Hate, fear and anger fills the nation,

Stolen from all security and freedom,
Shaking the sanctity of Liberty and Justice,
Threatening to liberate the unity of races,

Terrifying the peace and serenity of its’ habitants,
Raped, the peaceful ambiance that once unified countries,

Left behind a hollow skyline of broken dreams,
Calling a war to defend Freedom.

(Written in dedication to all those who died behind the Attack on America
& for all those who choose to defend and honor Freedom.)
