When I failed my exam...


The blank void

Sinking into an abyss of confusion 
How can my mind be so blank yet 
So full of the excruciating knowledge 
That I'm going to fail,
For the first time in my life,
I'm going to fail.

He's looming over me
My pen in my hand so ready to write
But with this dark confusion 
Overwhelming me I simply stare Vacantly,
At the ever blank page 
I just can not fill.

I'm helpless and hopeless
This was supposed to be a test
Of my scientific knowledge 
Not a test of how long
I can handle this stress,
I will not be perfect.

I can not and will not,
But I have no choice 
And I wish that I had a say
In what they expect me to do
But I'm only human too
And this test?

This test has got the worst of me
It's held me in captivity 
I can't Escape 
I'm trapped.
But then again the door is open
They say I'm free if I only I try.

But I already have,
And this is where it's led me
To the edge of insanity 
And my brain has shut down
But I'm still fully conscious 
Of the ever blank page
That I just can not fill.
