To those who do not know,
Many have died in this horrible incident.
We cried for a week, we cried for a year.
And still we'll cry on every anniversary.
Some won't get why, but others will.
It's because of those others that the remembrance will stand.
To all those who remember I'll thank you;
Thank you for all time.

Sadness inside me
Darkness all around my world
He left me broken
Why did he do this?
He left to bring me sadness
He left me broken
My father left one day
No calls, no letters, no byes
He left me broken
I miss him, but why?
Half of me left when he left
He left me broken
The good times are gone
His caring and loving too
He left me broken

Bright and glowing is the Moon
Cold and lonely is the night
I sit and stare at the many stars
I sit in silence just thinking of the "what if's"
And "how's" of the universe.
As our planet floats in peace among the stars,
I wonder what is its purpose?
Is it supposed to float in bright silence?
Or does it have some other great purpose?
I'll probably wonder about this question until I die,
But maybe wondering is my great purpose.

Why I can't sleep,
If only I knew.
Too much caffeine.
Or maybe it's too quiet.
If only a frog or a cricket would sound.
But wait, is that head lights I see,
I wonder who,
Within that car, it could be?
Can they not sleep either,
Or maybe...
Shadowy and gaunt
A chill creeps up my spine
The headstones,
Grim with age
As I walk, the frosted grass
Crumples like ice under weight
As I approach,
The foreboding grows rank
Like a decomposing body
I reach my destination
I read the name with fear and fright
And with disbelief run from the spot
To the car in which I came
"Why", I wonder
"Why did my name appear on that stone,
I'm alive as any one person could see."

The days go by fast and slow,
I cope, thinking that it wasn't my fault.
It still hurts to think that you're gone,
Why you left I'll never know.
Maybe I will know some day,
Or maybe I won't.
Understanding might not be meant to happen Here.
My one hope is that you'll come and see me One day.
Whether it's to say good-bye, or to stay.
But thank you for this gift you gave me.
Your abandonment didn't kill me,
So, I guess you made me stronger.

February seventh was the Day,
Full of happiness and joy.
The exchange of vows between you two,
Was meaningful and true.
But now those vows are broken,
Not by you, but by him.
He left you alone and sad.
You wonder, and I wonder, about why.
We'll wonder for all time.
The universe was turned upside-down,
When he left Sunday, February 11, 2001.
Mother you have been strong and kind,
Through all that has happened.
And thank you for all that you gave.

He fights with passion
To avenge the love they took.
Knighted by nobles,
He is recognized for his deeds.
Again he falls in love but with a queen.
For many years he fought the English.
Unfortunately he met his end by the loss of his head,
But not in vain his limbs served as warnings
To the four corners of England.
His head was set on London Bridge
In remembrance of his actions.
Not in vain was his family's death,
Not in vain were his actions.
Not in vain was a man's death that changed the government
Of Scotland forever!

If you have a mind to do it,
All things are possible.
When you have the courage to do it,
All things are possible.
As long as you don't discourage,
All things are possible.
And that's all that matters.

I guess he wanted to make me miserable,
I guess it makes him happy,
To see me down and dreary.
Every year I sit and stare at the pictures on my wall.
I see our happy days that we had,
but all those are out the window.
What to do I do not know,
I'll have to move on,
And live a better life than I ever had with him.

I am miserable in this spot
I need more from you
I need someone strong
Someone courageous,
Someone with self-esteem.
Why am I the strong one?
Why am I the rock?
I am there when you need me
But I can’t be all the time.
I need someone there for me
Money doesn’t matter
Love is what I need
Someone to lean on when I am in need
I want to be happy to talk
Not fear the phone calls that will come
I need to be released
I need to free
There is someone else for me.
I love you dearly
But I need leave
I know you will be upset
No mad
No pissed off
But it is for the best
I am sure of it.
