Proud To Be A 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.

When I refuse to
tolerate injustice and
I speak against it,
I'm 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.

If being a bitch means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am,
and I won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I 'should' be, then I'm proud to be one.

If being a bitch means being outspoken, opinionated and determined,
and wanting what I want, there's nothing wrong with that!

Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart.
It means I live my life MY way, and I won't allow anyone to step on me.

You can try to stomp on me, intimidate me or frighten me.
You can try to douse my inner flame, crush my spirit or squash the beauty I hold within me.

But you won't succeed.

And if that makes me a bitch , so be it.
I embrace the title and I'm proud to bear it.
