Not Just Four Walls

Four walls form the framework
Of what constitutes a room
And from within these confines
You can make your life bloom
These four walls give you security
From harm they keep you safe
Within the room you feel wrapped
And gain a sense of faith
So much there is this room can encourage
Thoughts and ideas with infinite possibilities
Leaving the space of the room and venturing out
Enables the chance to display ones' capabilities
Within the four walls so much growth can take place
So many things you can learn
It is said that knowledge is power
And with that power your life you can turn
Think not of your surroundings
As only four straight walls
Instead embrace and feel their support
Without them we'd struggle and fall
