Be the Queen

She started with a quiet whisper in my ear Telling me some things I needed to hear But her whisper soon turned into a shout "Hey girl let me your inner ***** out" She said "Stop all the people pleasing End all that giving in and appeasing Quit being a doormat for people to wipe their feet Think of yourself and cease taking a backseat Girl you need to listen to me your inner voice Keep getting walked on or stand up;make a choice Being the pushover has to end There will always be someone you offend You have to stop playing the supporting role It's time for you to take back control You must begin to be true to yourself Quit putting your needs and wants on a shelf Become concerned with your happiness and contentment Or you'll end up with bitterness and resentment It's your life to live and yours alone So start being the queen and sit on your throne" -C.A.Saputo xoxo
