This Dark Day

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Today
There are no Democrats
No Republicans
We are not black or white
Financial status
Has no status
This dark day
We are not divided
Seperated
We are nothing less
Than Americans
This dark day.
Pushing out our chests
Not to show our pride
Not a means to flex our muscles
But to open our arms
And show our hearts.
Now
We will heal our wounded
And mourn our loss
and be strong
Relish in the fact
That all barriers break down
And we are one
We are Americans.
The innocent
The fire fighters
The volunteers
And the policemen
We will go on in their honor
And in due time
They will get their justice...
For we are Americans
And we will not tolerate terrorism.
