Analysis of " The Day My Country Cried "



The shadow of death was upon us, our Country
was attack by cowardly terrorist.
When the "Capital Of The World" was taken by
surprise. When most of our brothers and
sisters where on there way to work, smoke and
thunder covered the city.
Heartless crimal minds killed our people for
no reason at all.
Dont think will go quite into the night and
hide, for we will find you and bring whos
responsible for justice, may God forgive you
and have mercy on your soul, myself as an
American cant...
Today is a brand new day and together, will
help one another, soon our flag will fly high
and our Nation will recover, then We the
people, We the Country with honor will
reclaim "Our Independence Day".
God Bless America....
