I am a middle child who is caught in the middle
Luckily I am not a middle age person or it might be a mid-life crisis all together

I prefer to be outside the circle as the circumstances maybe circulated
Hopefully I am not encircled by them or I will feel enclosed and keep on closing

I am speechless to explain the so-called unspeakable
Especially when the spoken words are renditions

I am an escapee who is trying to escape this scoop
Expectantly I am no scapegoat to those who is after someone’s throat

I am optimist who opts for optimization
Hopefully opportunity is no optical illusion

I am feeling a bit flattened after a fall
Possibly when I fall, I fall hard and full of feelings

I am not heart broken though my heart ache
Those heartless human only hardens me as humanely as possible

I am still standing like a statue amidst a stampede
Perhaps the reason I stood steady is because I lack sanity

I am who I am
I have played demon and angel
I have broken down and built up
I have drown and emerged
I have gave up and kept on
I have gone full cycle but I am yet to reach my destination

If it is the journey that really counts
Then I will give my flesh and skin for you to scar
Mark my word but don't touch my heart

Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)
by Green Day

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So, make the best of this test and don't ask why
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable but, in the end, is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So, take the photographs and still-frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable but, in the end, is right
I hope you had the time of your life
