A Normal Day

*In dedication to all those who were lost during 9/11, and to all the families who have lost them.*
A normal day
He's on his way
To work once more to pay
The bills that are stacked up, their payment so late
By the lobby
Dropping off his baby
Saying hello to the front desk lady
Ready to start work with a smile on his face
Just the norm
Not expecting the oncoming lorn
Caused by the chaos as it's born
Not expecting he'd be mourned
Not knowing what was in store
Not knowing he was the farthest from safe
This is so lovely Edna <3
