The Path I Walk

I fear the weight of unseen chains,

Of judgments made, of quiet pains.

But I will speak, for silence fades,

And in my voice, the change is made.

Grateful for the chance I’ve found,

To build with truth, to stand my ground.

Through hard work, I'll shape the day,

And let no bias lead me astray.

I seek the truths that others hide,

The truths that build, the truths that guide.

With every step, I learn to see,

How much of life belongs to me.

Not for the world, not for the gold,

But for the good that can unfold.

I’ll write, I’ll speak, I’ll break the mold,

And in the truth, my story’s told.
