by Mykenna Forward
My room is a quiet space, It is my own private, peaceful place. My room is a quiet escape, Far from cries, where silence lies. My room is a quiet corner, Where grief drifts and never lifts. My room is a quiet cell, One where I can sit and dwell. In this quiet, I lie, alone with only memories.
