# # Let Me Be....

Rating: 3.5


a cactus or a flower
let me be whatever
let me be what i am
let me seem what i am
let me not seem a flower..and
poke my way farer
let me not seem a cactus...and
fear away the other
let me seem what i am
let me be just what i am

Yes, 'let me be what i am' and be accepted for what I am! ! ! The worst part is, we are often victims of rash censure! ! ! I read this poem right when it was just what I needed at the moment sir!

however intensly you may feel, they will try their level best not to let u be what u are.i think, sam, life is a fight, a struggle to be yourselves against all odds.

The theme of the poem is related to dejection and wounded pride and of covering them up with nonchalance and confidence...good expressive write...10

a flower and cactus are both His creation. we humans also are multifaceted. it requires courage to stand for your convictions. oh yes, we need to live and let live. let me be its a plea don't you see I want to be free just let me be... Mamta
