Tired of people [typically men] telling me to smile. Why the **** would I need you to tell me? Did you think I forgot? Let's allow all of our feelings. They exist for a reason... And I hate to admit it, but pain is when I have grown the most. I love who I'm growing into. Let's not shun the bad ones. We need them. So... ******* laugh, or get mad. Cry a river or lay in bed. Feel them all, because they are needed. Let them pass and be on their way. Don't pretend or they'll never go away... So, next time you tell me to S M I L E, how about you just get the F U C K away from me. I'd rather ***** than have you mold me into your little ******* barbie.

I'M FINALLY ALIVE (metaphorically, of course...)
