10 years on

9/11 - Still so close to all our hearts

For the husband who told his wife I love you one last time before his plane went down in a field,
for the wife who stopped in the stairs to call her husband to say I will love you forever,
for the mothers and fathers who kissed their kids goodbye the morning they died,
for the policemen who rushed in with the firemen to help get others out only to die themselves,
for the soldiers who fought back and lost their lives.
Today, tomorrow, ten years from now,
we will remember ♥
