My name is John. I'm a singer/songwriter in southern Connecticut and the shooting was so close to home. On 12/14/12 I sat watching the news and wrote this song.
I hope the song helps people convey how they feel as it did for me as I wrote it.

To our friends in Newtown, CT...
This song is a message of love from "us", your neighbors. We're all around you. We are your friends and your family... We just haven't met you yet. We'll be here today and tomorrow...
