You have to defend yourself 😎

In shadows deep where whispers creep, A heart must rise, a promise keep, When words like daggers pierce the night, I stand my ground, prepared to fight. With courage forged in trials past, I gather strength, my fears amassed, For in the silence, doubts may swell, But I will not succumb to hell. The echoes of a thousand sneers, The weight of doubt, the sting of fears, Yet in my chest, a fire burns, A fierce resolve, the tide now turns. With every breath, I claim my space, In this arena, I find my grace, For truth is armor, strong and bright, And I will wield it in the light. So let them come with scornful eyes, With twisted tales and bitter lies, I’ll stand unyielding, fierce and free, For in this battle, I’ll be me. With every scar, a story told, A testament to strength and bold, I’ll rise like dawn, with hope anew, Defending self, my spirit true. In every clash, a lesson learned, In every bruise, a fire burned, For in the fight, I find my voice, And in my heart, I make my choice. To stand, to speak, to claim my right, To shine my truth, to be the light, For in this world, where shadows dwell, I’ll defend myself, and I’ll do it well.
