The Average

envy the good English they speak

envy the great shape they have

envy the stunning features they own

envy the brilliant brain they have

envy the huge fortune they inherit

envy the opportunities offered to them

envy the endless attention they received

but

I’m just the average

normal

ordinary

unlucky

where’s no one recognise nor remember

where’s nobody can differentiate

even my name is common,

nothing about me is unique to be fossilised

everything is just average

being blessed and glad

That is who I am.
