Surrounded
By Oren Milgrom-Dorfman age 11
I am surrounded
It’s a fact, it is true
I am surrounded
It’s good and it’s bad, it has many hues
I am surrounded by people who want to check in
See how I’m doing, see if I’ve had a win
I am surrounded by people that say
I will try to help you in every way
Being surrounded is good, that is true
But as I have said, it has many hues
I am surrounded anytime, anywhere
I can’t escape, can’t get fresh air
I am surrounded, it feels suffocating
I need to escape, need to keep moving
Being surrounded can be bad, that is true
But I must remember that it has many hues
I am surrounded by people who love me
I am surrounded by people who care
I am surrounded by people that help me
In any way and anywhere
Being surrounded is good, bad and true
And what’s also true is that it has many hues
So being surrounded is both good and bad
It’s loving, it’s suffocating, it’s people holding your hand
Being surrounded is bad and it’s good
It’s helping, it’s holding, it’s I wish that I could
I am surrounded
It’s a fact, it is true
I am surrounded
It’s good and it’s bad, it has many hues
