     My room is a place of safety 
     Where I can retreat 
     From the harsh, demanding world 
     And safely take my seat 

     My room is small, petite, and still 
     Offering a seeming calm 
     Isolated from the world 
     A place where I can rest my palm 

     Its plain white walls are more than that 
     And the posters upon the sides 
     Represent what I do feel 
     As permanent as the tides 

     My room is some place I can go 
     When I feel troubled in my heart 
     And the pastel colors of the place 
     Makes me realize I don’t want to part 

     Overall, I love my room 
     This place that belongs to me 
     And only I, and I alone 
     Can change this indefinitely
