i sit here
in silence
waiting for a reply
waiting for some indication
that everything will turn out ok

i watch other people
they go through the let down
they thought that everything was ok
it wasnt
how will it turn out for me?

i see yet others
heads bowed in knowing defeat
they get their answer
they are suprised and overjoyed
how will it turn out for me?

i sit back
try to breath
try to control the shaking in my hand
but all i can think is:
how will it turn out for me?

finally my time has come
i collect myself
to recieve my fate
i look at the piece of paper
i passed

~anyone who has ever not done too well in a class can understand where im comming from with this one
i really dislike recieving tests, especially when i know ive done bad on one.
i tried to write it so that you would want to know what i was talking about throughout the whole poem, and in the end its not as serious as you thought
tell me how it worked?
thanks

i am blinded by the silence of a breaking heart... i cant see myself

The ending was quite a surprise to me. Your little scheme worked in that respect. I know what it's like to be anxious over a grade, and you describe it really well. Thanks for sharing.

This endeavour was a success, you certainly caught me off guard.  
Very well done.

It was good. I liked it. Not your best though.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
