We did not ask for this

Updated: Jul 19, 2020

We Did Not Ask For This Room

by Stephen King



We did not ask for this room,

or this music;

we were invited in.

Therefore,

because the dark surrounds us,

let us turn our faces toward the light.

Let us endure hardship

to be grateful for plenty.

We have been given pain

to be astounded by joy.

We have been given life

to deny death.

We did not ask for this room,

or this music.

But because we are here,

let us dance.
