See Through My Lens

See through my lens
That perfection is not in my blood,
I have tried to be like them and failed.
I need none of their approval or acceptance
To make it in this Tribe of poetry; where many
Look forward to see you fall with their words.

I will be who I concluded in my heart to be,
Before you judge me, see through my lens.
Perception differs from one to the other,
Adore me the way I am and, don't judge me base
On the way you see through your eyes lens.
The good I have done in your hood should have
Over shadows my flaws and weaknesses.

Before you judge me, just let me be;
Before you judge me, rememeber your flaws,
Life ain't easy for anyone that strife to succeed.
I am as weak as you are, not a superman; superhero.
To my friends, families, closest pals and relatives,
I promise never to take you on this memory lane again.

Before you open my anus in the public,
I have been in pains and suffering,
Let me take you through the my memory lane;
I have been as weak and confused as you are.
See through my lens, see through my eyes,
I was not made to be perfect but imperfect I am.

I have suffered many misfortunes!
I have suffered many pains!
I have suffered many disappointment!
I have suffered many sorrows and agonies!
I have been abused and no anyone to fight for me!
Maybe that is why I act the way I do,
Maybe that is why I behave the way I do.

I have seen death barks and my heart skip a beat,
Am only a human and I apologise for being human.
Apologies to my friends and closest pals,
No mistake is too great to recover and bounce back.
You can love me or leave me, before you judge, just
Let me be, life isn't easy as you see through your lens.
You will miss me when am gone beyond.

See my whole life through my own lens not yours;
Your lens could be deceiving and confusing, you
Can see through my eyes and tell my pains to your heart.
