Flaws Of Perfection

By Nasir Salaam

Flaws of perfection came about from one's personal views on his or her life. When you give thought to the title, what can you deem perfect? The first thought that comes to my mind is Allah(God). We all deal with our own personal flaws no matter your religion. This is an autobiography in a poetic form. I'm giving you different views and insight inside my train of thoughts. Also, I'm showing you the progression as years went by, who's better to scribe your story than you? The world will always have their views and opinions of you. Does it make it true? If you are able to still smile when confronted with pain and laugh when presented with joy, that's a life even the wealthiest person couldn't afford. Adversity either exposes or reveals one's true self. So, laugh with me, cry with me, I'm showing you what's inside of me. I'm not the only one that been through some pain. But what I want you to gain by the end of this book, at least smile for me!

Inspired by: Words of the Wicked

Who would’ve thought that I’d be living my

life through publications

Unable to defend my honor from what

they’re saying

Waiting for my freedom many years, I’ve

been so patient

Relief finally came from pain that I

was faced with

Why would they print the truth when a

lie sells more papers?

Not surprised to say the least, that’s

the art to their persuasion

When you’re at the top, where else should

they be aiming?

So I’ll scribe my own life, but this

one is authenticated…

Crazy

Crazy is as

Crazy does

If crazy is so crazy, then why

Is crazy in love?

Birthday Love

Dedicated to: Chey (Birthday 6-28)

How are you

Doing today?

I pray that you’re doing good, as

for me, I’m okay

Good times and good people pass

by so fast

Some things you can hold on to

Some things you can’t have

Some people hold strong, some

people blow past

You’ll see how long loved ones

really last

Around me, you shouldn’t have any

fears and nothing to hide

I’m the most understandable person

that you can possibly find

I’ll protect you, respect you, and

love you inside

I’ll catch up with you later, this is

A temporary goodbye

The little time that we’ve spent, I

can still hear you laughing

Do certain things only for you

because you’re the love of my passion

Bring a man to satisfaction, your

style, your attraction

You already know what I’m packing, I

see you smiling, I know you’re laughing

Love is a strong word, only say it to

those who deserve

I can express it socially, emotionally

and use it as a verb

Hopefully, our love will continue

I don’t want us to fade away, I say all that to say

I love you and happy birthday…

Birthday Love

Hopefully our love will continue, I

don’t want us to fade away

But I say all that to say, I love

you and happy birthday…

Motherly Love

Dedicated to: My Umi (Mother)

You know, I never get a chance to

comment on your beauty

So breathtaking, so smiling is

my duty

Situations I got into, you were

always there

No matter what it was, you always

cared

You’re the strongest person I know

Matter of fact, you’re stronger than me

Mentally, physically, emotionally, Allah

blessed you to be

My situation affects you

and others

But you feel the pain more because

I’m your son, and you’re my mother

Just like I feel the pain for you, but

it stays inside

But I don’t hold it in, when it was

time for me to cry, I cried

Nights you couldn’t go to sleep until

I was safely in the house

Back doors I used to creep, but you

were waiting on the couch

Cursed me out, gave me a speech, but

Nasir never listened

I’ll comprehend, but not enough now

Nasir is in the system

You know my personality and characteristics

I’m not a thug

I wouldn’t want to be one either

because thugs miss out on

motherly love…

Deep Love

2007–2010

Deep love is an unfortunate place

Buried deep in your heart

Often, it takes time for that glitch

to spark

Blood, sweat, and tears been buried

for years

A little emotion, it will resurface, and

take what is theirs
