I need to find a poem relating to survivors guilt?

Question

I need this poem for a theme related project. I don't need any more about the Holocaust. I have found several already. Thank you for helping.

Answer 1

Try looking up about 9-11. The firemen that survived, or families, or ppl in the towers that got out and the ones that missed or changed planes that day! There was a lot of surv. guilt written about that.

Answer 2

Here is a poem someone has written called "Survivors Guilt"

Move on with your life
Are the words I’ve heard the most often since you died
No one seems to realize that its not that easy
What about the guilt that I feel
How come you died, and I survived
That car changed my life forever
By taking your life
And sparing mine
I know I should be grateful that I’m still alive
But how am I supposed to keep on living
Pretending that everything is alright
Only I know how much I’m hurting
Seeing you dieing in front of my eyes
Yet being unable to do anything to save you
Do you know how it feels to be that helpless
To know that the person I love with all my heart is going to die
Because I can’t do anything about it
Shedding tears later at your funeral
Doesn’t make it any better
I sometimes wonder why it was you and not me
You deserved to live and became a cop
You were the one who wanted to safe people’s lives
By stopping people from doing stupid things
Yet you were the one who was killed by a drunk driver
