: : BITCH : :

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call
me a BITCH. When I stand up for those I love, they
call me a BITCH. When I speak my mind, think my own
thoughts or do things my own way, they call me a
BITCH.

Being a BITCH means I won't compromise what's in my
heart. It means I live my life MY way.
It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against
it, I am defined as a BITCH.

The same thing happens when I take time for myself
instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a
little selfish. It means I have the courage and
strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and
won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I
"should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.
I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with
that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame,
try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.
You won't succeed. And if that makes me a BITCH, so be
it. I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.
