Please Let Me Be

What do I appear to you A shiny doll with no aims A life that has seen no pains _ You think you know me Very few are the ones that understand me_ I ask thee for MY LIFE to live Do away with the societal norms and the cliff_ One day will come when all this will be over I wanna be among the ones who says - Man this was worth the rover_ I feel strangled by your over protective norm Like I have already wasted the quarter of this life form_ One way you say you understand Unfortunately what expressed was just your controlling hand_ The laughs that you make, the examples you pose Are the taunts that PIERCE deep like a watering hose_ Every passing day seems a waste What did I live all this while was just a haste_ Friends I have/had are the ones I can call Mine You disapprove of even them framing malign_ I don’t think I can live “how YOU expect” My LIMITS are overpowering this EXTENDING conflict_ Fear gropes me thinking about the next day A feisty dark shadow consumes the benevolence away_ I don’t want to pretend I don’t want to sway Before I have the next generation to my array_ LET ME BE -- PLEASE LET ME BE I am not you neither I want to be With my phantoms of self-discovery, of improvement and foul-play I seek to survive It gets too hard I try to be alive_ CHOKED is the feeling I get everytime with thee Spread my wings and fly, I wanna be responsible for my own rupee.
