I wrote this outside of a park in Jackson overlooking the Six Flags Great Adventure theme park. Just something that I was feeling in that moment.

Today
Feels very different
World keeps spinning
People still moving
Businesses stay open
Yet
Today
Feels very awkward
21 years later
Still feels like yesterday
Still a struggle
Still a process
But it never fully goes away
Watch all the footage
Scour the news articles
Trying to find a reason
There just isn’t one
I hope
I plead
I pray
One day
That awful day
Will ultimately fade away
