Tragically Beautiful

 

Hovering above us

The Flag granting dismay

In God we Trust

To know everything’s okay

 

Millions of lives taken

In the depth of tragedy

Silently Shaking

While singing “My Country tis’ of thee”

 

The Beginning of a battle

The towers tumble down

The depression so full

While the tears fall, silencing all sound.

 

The blaze showers down

Along with the planes

The absence of life all around

With the depression ringing out.

 

Another war reveals itself in destiny

Speaking out with its helplessness

Numerous souls are broken while tears strain to be free

As America the beautiful is drained from its happiness

 

Another soldier in Iraq

Fighting for our lives

A depressional attack

For sweet American’s sacrifice

 

War victims lay in God’s hands

Looking down at the beautiful tragedy

With appreciation

                         At our right to be free.
