My Stand, My Right

In the hospital's quiet halls, I stand my ground,

A voice in the silence, where my rights are bound.

Refusing to comply with the system's plea,

Standing firm, asserting me, refusing decree.

They say it's procedure, but I know my worth,

This is my story, my life on this earth.

No to forced placement, no to unfair control,

My boundaries strong, my heart and soul.

Stand up, speak out, let your voice be heard,

In the face of silence, be the word.

Refuse the override, claim your dignity,

This is my fight for my sovereignty.

I ask for acknowledgment, a paper, a sign,

A meeting, a voice, to make this right.

No more silence, no more fear,

My stand, my right, crystal clear.

Respect and freedom, my voice shall ring,

In the halls of power, let the truth sing.

This song of resistance, loud and free,

In every heart, let it be.
