Is this exam to me a crystal ball,
That shows me my rise or fall
Many men have stared into its eye,
Fearlessly trying to set their fate,
Like hour hands rigged to make time fly
Some saw that their efforts were too late.
But what happens to men, who wish not to stare,
Are they damned and doomed by the book,
Is their lives filled with monotony and despair,
Or do they too set their fate like the ones who happened to look
How can I be sure that with effort my fate is sealed,
And my future success is revealed.
Sigh, all I can do is hope and pray
That an exam, will change my life someday.
