Twenty Stars

Twenty stars now in the sky... much too young to say "Goodbye," your lives we will not forget, your dreams will live--no regret. Our tears are for what's been done-- a man killing with a gun; we cry because you are gone, that pain will go on and on. Your families will miss you, our nation will miss you too; the sadness will not relent for lives too young to be spent. You are in a better place-- where love has infinite space, God will wrap you in His care... just like your own teddy bear.
