I am not a portrait

“If you step too close, you miss the big picture,

If you’re too far, you see no feature.

You think you have everything under control,

until realize you’re achieving the wrong goal.

When it is too easy, it’s hard to commit,

When it is too hard, it’s easy to quit.

Both black and white blinds you,

but in between you find the clue.

It would’ve been easier if it were left or right,

Up or down, cold or hot, dark or bright.

But it’s never like this, for pity’s sake,

Balance, you know, is the road to take.”
