Tribute To Those Killed On December 14, 2012

Lets bow our heads, give a minute to think, think about how lucky we are
We never know what we have, until that day that it's gone
December 14, 2012....the day someone took the lives of twenty children, six teachers

Everyone has the life with ups and downs, though as if the worst
Some can see that they are to be thankful, and some give no pity, and take advantage
Life is short, life is long, no matter how you look at it, hold it close
Some lives don't live the length of a hundred years, some not even to be ten years of age
Some take the lives of others, no guilt, not an ounce of pity
Some are the ones that their lives were taken, not a chance to stay and show they are there

Time to give thanks for what we have, for the fact of not knowing
Not knowing when it will be gone
Hold them close and thank the world for the chance to have them
Take a hand, bow your heads, be with the ones you love

Don't leave, and hope to come back, stay and give thanks
Stay and hope to never leave, to hold them close

One by one, bullets were shot, victims killed, innocent children, innocent adults
They never knew, that it would end that way, life came and went so fast
Take your time, never hope for it to go faster, hold time within

For those who let tears fall, for the ones that have lost their loves
Don't hold the tears in, show you care, we all understand, life is very hard to live through
Take a hand, never let it go, stand in a circle, bow your heads
Stay together, hold the memories close in mind, never let them fade

No one should feel the pain of a loved one who was killed, but when you do, don't hold back, don't take it out on yourself
Every one needs the time to heal, the time to love, the time to hold close

To those who have lost, know your not alone, know that there is those who care
To those who have lost, know that you care, that no one can bring you down, you are strong
Pain is emotional and physical, they say physical is worse, but do they see
Physical pain will heal, maybe leave a scar, but the pain leaves
Emotional always stays, forever in your head, never leaving you, forever yours

To those who have lost, bow your head, take a hand, let the tears fall, there's people who care, know your not alone
To those who have lost, don't keep it in, let the tears fall, you are strong, don't let people make you think your not
Those who have lost, know that losing someone you love forever, is real pain that never leaves
 
        R.I.P
To those who lost their lives.

     Stay strong
To those who have lost loved ones.
