EXAMS AND EMOTIONS

source🌐🌐
For hours I never flipped the book
The same page I couldn't assimilate
I was bewildered with this overflowing love
I wonder which water stream it cometh

While leaving home, papa gave a warning
You're permitted to fall in love everyday
But with your books alone he said
I wonder when I loose guard

My school fees is being paid for certificate
Am I not trading it for feelings already?
Mama wanted a first class grade
I'm feeling a first class love

I smiled at the book enthusiastically
My friends thought I was assimilating drastically
My feelings betrayed them already
For now I see her face not letters

Call me a fool for love
I wanna be a fool forever
If I should earn a carryover
At least I'd gain a lover

All night, phone calls
She chased me to my books
But she's the only one I wanna read
I think she's enough than the handouts

Like chewing stick I chewed the pen
I wrote scantily in my answer sheet
Like I was drawing marsh plantation
Even on pen's up, I still think of her

Exams, I failed , just like flu
In almost every course
I never knew what was coming
Till it landed like a disaster.

She left, even though it hurts
And chased after those with grades
Even though I had a great love grade
Alone, my problems, I wail and cry.

My senses, they reappear
Dad caution, resounding
Now he needs to see my result
The education he played for!

The grades , I don't have
The excuse, left already
Then now, I fall in love
Only on holidays
