A tribute to 9/11, inspired by the Writers Cramp, a triolet
Time stand still as towers fall
The world has stopped to mourn
A heartless act to shock us all.
Time stand still as towers fall.
A gasp, a tear, one last call,
Ashes fall on a nation torn.
Time stand still as towers fall
The world has stopped to mourn

Time moves on and so must we
But we will not forget
The lives we lost will rest in peace.
Time moves on and so must we
A smile, a sigh, a memory
A country stronger from this threat.
Time moves on and so must we
But we will not forget
