I know not what awaits this darkened room,
since death has claimed you for it's latest bride.
I feel a sense of some impending doom,
As solemn sadness sits 'midst tears I've cried.
At times this room held not a rosy bed
and peace and harmony became the cost.
Life's trials and sorrows raised it's troubled head,
At time it seemed that everything was lost.
But, in this room we saw the light of day,
Made love, birthed kids, shared moments of sweet bliss.
Saw happiness and joy along life's way,
These are the moments I will truly miss.
Though you are gone from me, I still must stay,
As somehow, somewhere soon, I'm on my way.
