Patriot Poem

9-11
The day the twin towers collapsed
The day thousands of people died
The day that will stay one of our country’s worst events for years to come
9-11
The reason our soldiers were sent to Iraq
The reason so many of our soldiers have gotten stop-lossed
The reason people feel like they have to be heroes
The reason our soldiers have to fight for our freedom
9-11
Why so many people lost their families
Why so many people had to bury their loved ones far before their time
Why so many people never got to see their family again
9-11
The reason so many people lost their kids in this war
The reason so many people lost their parents and siblings
9-11
I support our troops
I support what they do for us
I support the fact that they want to help to preserve our freedom
But I do not support the fact that they have to fight a war to do this
