The Big Exam

This one last chance

To try your best

To get things right

On this one big test

.

You file into a noiseless hall

You struggle to find your seat

You pull out your pen and all of your things

Then nervously shuffle your sheet

.

The teacher stands at the front of the hall

She tells you all the rules

Then she comes for you’re phones, mp3’s

Then hands out necessary tools

.

The nerves kick in

You can’t keep still

You try to relax

which works until…

.

The teacher says start

And the clock ticks faster

Everyone starts working

It’s a total disaster

.

The pressure piles on

You read the first question

It seems almost impossible

What an impression!

.

You look at the next one

It’s a little bit clearer

The time passes by

The end gets nearer

.

Towards the end of the time

Your calm and content

When you catch sight of the clock

Your back in torment

.

Five more questions

You rush through the rest

Everyone has finished

You hope for the best

.

One week later

The scores are all in

And the only reaction

Leaves you happy within…

Hopefully…
