They Were Wrong

This is a poem I wrote for my schools 2018 9/11 ceremony. I searched for a poem that I could connect with, but none of them quite fit, so from somewhere deep within me I found the inspiration to compose this. I am quite proud of it, but that pride is bittersweet because of the sorrowful context it had to be written in. So many lives were lost that day, and I now pay my respects in the best way I know how: my writing.
