In their memory...
...I take my pen in hand...
In their memory...
...I try to understand...
In their memory...
...I write, and write some more...
In their memory...
...My writes, an open door...
In their memory...
...I remember the fears...
In their memory...
...I remember the tears...
In their memory...
...I remember the cost...
In their memory...
...I remember the lost...
In their memory...
...I remember the pain...
In their memory...
...I remember, again...
In their memory...
...Although I wasn't there...
In their memory...
...I was as unprepared...
In their memory...
...As long as I'm alive...
In MY memory...
...They'll always be alive...
In MY memory...
...As long as there's a threat...
In their memory...
...I WILL NEVER FORGET.
