Breathe


Let me live my life
Let me breathe silently
Let me grow on my own
What kind of expectation is this
This expectation of talking like you
Being like you
Just because iam a part of you
Let me see the world with my innocent hopes and expectations
And when the time comes I will live the way I Have to
Don’t take away from me my dreams
Because oh! they are the only flavours of my hopeless life
Don’t take away from me my little moments of happiness
Because those are the only treasures I see when my life is filled with darkness
Don’t take away from me myself
Because then ill be left hollow
In this world,- so alone
In a world where the good is taken for granted
And hopes are laughed upon
This world a cobweb of lies
Where tears are not heeded to
And being selfish is the only strategy of survival
Let me live my life
Take these chains off me
Which suffocate me to death
This chain of greed
Need
And want
Let me just live
In this world of my dreams
Where everything atleast has a hope for being perfect

"where everything at least has a hope of being perfect"
love the end.
there's a bit of an unbalanced rhyme metre in the 13th and 14th lines.
be careful, just because you're not rhyming doesn't mean you don't have a rhythm.
