The dilemma of being just average

Oh!!! NO!!!
Not again!!!
Sorry, I am not the best or the worst sir...
I am just average.

I am not the drunkard, I am not the sage...
I am just average.

Engineer I am, not that great...
Sorry, I am just average.

My dad is happy, so is my mom,
I've got a career handsome...
A beautiful and understanding wife not found by many,
An ideal life???
Alas! I am not finding it so funny....

I am not the drunkard, I am not the sage,
I am just average.

A writer by passion, a dreamer by notion,
Without the dimes in the pocket, a peaceful sleep at night,
I am just another average on the streets in motion.

"Behind the darkness cometh the light",
Says the oracles of might.
Alas! I just have an afternoon and night.

Sorry,
I am not a drunkard, I am not a sage,
I am just average.

    I liked it especially these lines :
    I am not a drunkard, I am not a sage,
    I am just average.

    Rhyming is just so cute and b'ful and funny and catchy and fresh.....it doesn't sound the best or the worst, but perfectly average !
