The Monstrous Exams Poem by Abinaya Saravanan

The Monstrous Exams

Rating: 4.4


We are the teens who have
just begun to discover this world
The exams the monsters come to threaten us
on the pretext of making us bold
Even the parents become our foes
pushing us to fight these monsters alone
Thick bound books stare at us ruthlessly
and fear pierce our every bone
With the text reluctant to become our friend
we struggle with our brain to grasp it
Brain too becomes helpless and
heartless people say work hard a bit
Time becomes a challenger
and negative thoughts become a invader
Life becomes a borer
and stress comes as a killer
when exams are near.
