In Loving Memory of my
brother
Thomas N. Pecorelli
who was killed on American Airlines Flight 11
Sept 11th, 2001
The Day My World Stopped Turning
This day was not supposed to be like this a day just like any other
It was the day my world stopped turning and I lost my only brother
The news I watched and what I saw had embedded in my mind
How can so much evil be out there and kill innocent mankind
Each day I struggle with the loss that we cannot get through
I think of Tom and the life he led and how this can't be true
I saw him Sunday with a gleam and glitter in his eye
For what he was carrying was priceless something you can't buy
He had the ultrasound of his son the one he would never know
He carried that proudly with him for the whole world to show
He lived a life so full of dreams all which came true
When he married Kia we all knew the dreams he would pursue
A beach set wedding so many friends that came from far and near
To witness the love they have and this was a big affair
His job was one he filled with hope and longed to be in the eye
Never did we ever think our Tommy was chosen to die
Not a day goes by without a tear that streams down on my face
The memories of this horrific day are ones I can't erase
I see his photos with smiles so wide so beautiful he was
He died by the hands of someone evil all just because
His wife is carrying something special and so new
My dear Tommy that someone is going to be just like YOU
The son you always wanted the boy you will not see
I know you are watching over him and will always be
I know you are in heaven and at peace watching down on us
Please forgive the tears we shed and the way we make a fuss
You were special to each and everyone showing how much you cared
And this is a situation which is almost too hard to bear
When you see my tears can you wipe them away for it is something I can't do
My love for you my brother holds strong from me to You
