Day 19: 9/11

the soot of this crumbled city
sits under the skin of its decedents
the ones who havent fallen
who continue to walk towards tomorrow
erect and outstretched

they say the skyline looks different
but i dont know any difference
this place is still a mystery
covered
and clasped
kept from me

i do not see the home made empty
or withered away
or the bodies decayed
i do not watch the silver sky fall
i do not remember
because i was not there
but i stand here in awe
of all that has not fallen
