Enclosed in this tiny space
a ray of light penetrated my gaze
I took a peek at the tiny gap
saw the goodness and badness the world is wrapped

Two forces are pulling me apart
each, determined to make a mark
one wants me to see the world through ideals
while the other wants me to face what is real

The world seem so perfect through the gap
that I want to feel them in my grasp
then, just as I was about to
fear is holding me back

Then, I asked myself, will I be happy in this world
where pain is part of its domain
the cruelties of the world all around me
slowly, fear crept inside me

I feel like being in the middle of a crossroad
not sure where to go
then again, this is what life is all about
tears, joys, confusion, part of its clout.
