It's okay if you like things other people don't

It's okay if you don't like to talk much

It doesn't make you a weirdo, even if others say so

Because unlike lots of people, you have the courage

To be you

In private and in public

It's okay to be savage

If someone tries to belittle you

It's okay if you don't smile

Just to satisfy someone's venomous pride

Scratch that

Mind your guile

And show them you won't hide

And if they get afraid

Then smile at their pitiful parade

And ask, "Who's afraid of me?

Because you should be

After what you've done"


-Currently listening to "Who's afraid of little old me?" by Taylor Swift.
