My name's Victor, and I am Brazilian. Even though I write far from the US and
NY, the memories of the attack hurts me as any human being concerned with
the tragic loss of innocent human lives. My eyes water and my heart throbs
strongly while remembering the people who perished in the attacks, and their

suffering family members. I do want to tell all of you that far away from the US,
there are people who care and suffer when so much senseless destruction occurs.
However, I do not have a poem or a song ready and I didn't manage to create
one, perhaps because I am unable to structure them now.  But I can imagine.
It's about hope and sympathy as a gift for those who lost lives or a loved
one. Death and suffering already occupies to much space in the news. I
prefer that all loved ones are now flowers in the garden of heaven. Not
suffering nor crying, but blooming blissfully and smiling for the love and
sympathy we dedicate to them. May our tears water them to keep them smiling
while knowing they are at peace.
