Crown Of Truth Poem by Garett Ryan

A life once built on lies and deceit
Now crumbled, shattered at my feet

I've lost everything, my world turned upside down
But now I'm ready to rebuild, to wear my truth like a crown

No more secrets, no more lies
I'll face my demons, I'll open my eyes

To a new world, a brighter future
Where honesty and integrity will be my culture

I'll work each day, with sweat and tears
To rebuild my life, to conquer my fears

For in being honest, in facing my truth
I'll find strength, and a new way to soothe

The pain and hurt, the guilt and shame
I'll rise above it, and I'll never be the same

For I am a man, with a newfound resolve
To live my life, with honesty and resolve.
