Well, everyone's been writing poems ever since this blog got started so even I thought taht I would follow in their footsteps. However, I guess I was too lazy and couldn't even get the inspiration to write a single line. Funny now, that with exams just around the corner, I was able to find all the inspiration I needed to write a poem. So here it goes......
As the days go by and my exams draw near,
Inside me I feel a growing fear.
Surrounding me are mountains of books piled high,
Just the imposing sight of them makes my throat go dry.
For these books contain all that I need,
To study hard so that I can suceed.
But as I pore over the pages of one particular book,
I simply flicker through them with a blank look.
Unable to understand and unable to follow,
The lump in my throat becomes harder to swallow.
My stomach's churning and my knees feel weak,
As I realize that my prospects of passing look very bleak.
I struggle to find hope to lift me up from my sorry state,
Then, as reality dawns on me, I realize it's too late.
Time continues to fly by, seemingly reckless,
With so much to learn in so little time that I almost feel breathless.
Nothing to do now but anxiously wait,
For Time to come and deliver my Fate.
THE END
I really couldn't come up with a title so I was hoping whether you chaps would suggest an appropriate one. Also, this is my first poetic output in over 8 years so I am abit apprehensive about your reaction. Whatever you feel, do let me know.
Oh yeah, WISHING ECE BEST OF LUCK FOR THE SEMESTER EXAMINATIONS
Cheers
