My Blue Skies Have Turned To Gray

My blue skies have turned to gray
It happened on that dreadful day

My happiness washed away by the tears
Left only with our memories and fears

Your life cut short by disease
Death brought me to my knees

As my heart aches from the pain
Sorrow flowing through my vein

Beginning to consume my soul
This grief is beyond my control

Holding on to the love we shared
Life without you leaving me scared

Days are filled with such despair
Wondering if it's more than I can bear

...My blue skies have turned to gray
