Light of Truth

In the shadows of whispers, where truth often hides

Lies the courage to stand, where integrity abides

Voices may rise, claiming virtue in disguise

Yet your heart knows truth and sees through lies

They'll paint you as wild, for daring to speak

For setting your boundaries, for refusing to be weak

But your strength is your armor, your voice is your shield

In the battle for respect, you shall never yield

They'll call you unkind, for demanding respect

But kindness is not silence, nor is it neglect

It's knowing your worth, and holding it high

It's refusing to bow, to the false and the sly

In a world full of noise, be the calm, steady stream

Let your truth be your guide, let your spirit gleam

For those who are genuine will see your light

And stand by your side, in the darkest of night

Your boundaries are sacred, your truth is your own

In the garden of self, let your courage be sown

For the world needs your voice, your unyielding grace

To challenge the falsehoods, to take your rightful place

Rise with the dawn, let your spirit be free

Stand tall in your truth, let the world see

That you are a force, unyielding and bright

A beacon of strength, in the heart of the night

For in standing up, you teach others to see

The power of truth, the strength of the free

So, let them call you crazy, let them call you wild

For in your heart, you are free and undefiled
