BITCHology

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 dothings 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 andspeak against it,
I am defined as a bitch.

The same thing happens when
I take time formyself instead of being everyone's maid.
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 whatthey think
I "should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.
I want what I want and there isnothing wrong with that!
So try to stomp on me,
try to douse my inner flame,
try to squash every ounce of beauty I holdwithin 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 !!!!
