Stuck In the Middle

Stuck in the middle
With no happy fiddle
Asked to take sides
With care for both
But I am stuck in the middle

No place to run
Must face it straight on
Two great places to go
Only one to choose
Stuck in the middle

People separating all the time
Must unite to conquer all
But we run forever
Must face it head on
But I am stuck in the middle

I thought it was a good poem, but it was trying too hard to be poetic. It's a good start, though, and do keep writing.
