In My Room

In my room
do I hide

As the time
I sit and bide

Then no one
can see me

Why’s the world
my worst enemy?

Why can’t they
who I am accept?

What from me
do they expect?

Wish somewhere else
I could live

Where people have
love to give

And the haters
they don’t allow

There must be
a place somehow

I can exist
just as I am

Not forced to live
a life of sham

So I pray
to the Lord

Give me a world
where I am adored!
