I Fell Asleep with the TV On


I fell asleep with the TV on.


In a dream

you were only six years old.

In a dream

I bear witness

of a huge blue gray sky.

In a dream

We grabbed some things for you.

In a dream

I took a Bible,

seeking the 23rd Psalm,

tried to read it,

and broke down.

In a dream

I had a really hard time being alone

In a dream

I decided to concentrate on a different side

In a dream

we live in a different world now.

In a dream

I wanted to feel.

I wanted to feel.

In a dream

I was horrified

In a dream

I saw the North Tower

In a dream

my mom said it was

worse

than Pearl Harbor.

In a dream

I was 8 months pregnant.

In a dream

it was a fearful time.

In a dream

I panicked.

In a dream

they came to my apartment.

In a dream

my mother came to stay with me.

In a dream I stayed awake all night.

In a dream

my jaw dropped.

In a dream

I saw smoke pluming.

In a dream we were both crying.

In a dream

we were dying.

In a dream

we are all a little American today.

In a dream

they also realized.

In a dream

people learned.

In a dream

we bless our heroes.

In a dream

we will never forget.
