Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods yet, I wondered
For everyone around me thought so
And I felt outnumbered
When I decided to not go with the flow
I was very cautious
For as long as I can remember
But not others, they were tortious
And that messed with my temper
So I took some liberties
Threw some caution to the wind
Indulged in not the safest of activities
Trying to remember what it felt like to not be in a bind
For how long can one continue
To follow the rules to a t
The rule breaker is still within you
Who just craves to be free
So my life too is now hybrid
Juggling between the pros and cons
As I try to be reminded
That it's not a full stop, just a semicolon
