Staying True

"I feel that I have to stay true to myself... There's only so much I can tolerate without snapping. I do hold my tongue, as I will say something truthful and hurtful. I do turn away, as my expressions will tell how I feel... It would be great to be a nice and loving person all the time, but why do I have to suffer for being a nice person? If other are not going to bother about how I feel, making me feel suffocated, bottling up won't help me be a more loving person. So I'm just staying true to myself."
