Oh, exam stress, how you do oppress
With every passing moment, my anxiety does progress
The pressure builds with each page I turn
And my mind begins to churn
...
Bharat, the land of the brave,
Where the sun rises with an orange blaze,
A land of legends, myths, and tales,
Where diversity and unity always prevails.
...
In the dead of night, when all is still
And the moon hangs low on the hill
A chill runs down your spine
As you hear a sound, not quite divine
...
The shadows move, the whispers hiss
Something wicked lurks in the abyss
A presence felt, but not seen
A terror that makes the bravest scream
...
O' glorious Bharat, the land of divinity
A land of spirituality and harmony
The mountain ranges, rivers, lakes and ravine
Allure many for a journey divine
...
Exam Stress
Oh, exam stress, how you do oppress
With every passing moment, my anxiety does progress
The pressure builds with each page I turn
And my mind begins to churn
My heart beats faster, my palms are slick
I can't concentrate, my mind won't stick
To the facts and figures, the words and lines
That should be so easy to define
But with each question, I second-guess
My knowledge, my skills, my whole success
I wonder if I've studied enough Or
if my efforts have been too rough
The clock ticks on, the time does pass
And I try to focus, to make it last
But the stress and pressure, they take their toll
And I feel like I'm losing control
Yet, still I soldier on and try
To push through the fear and not comply
To let exam stress, not bring me down
And turn my smile into a frown
So I'll take a breath and do my best
And hope that it will pass the test
And when it's over, I'll be relieved
That exam stress no longer weaves
Its web of worry and self-doubt
And I can finally let it all out
And celebrate the end of this phase
And all the hard work that it displays.
