Read write, think, fail
Read write, think, fail
Why can't I remember?
Am I doomed to lose
Think, read, think again umm
Read, think, say it aloud
Still why can't I remember
Am I doomed to lose
Apply, rinse, repeat
Apply, rinse, repeat
Is it just me or am I going in circles?
I'm doomed to lose

Ok stay calm, breathe
Breathe you can do this
It's not that hard really
Breathe, this will be easy
I can't do it
I don't remember a thing
Look I'm even shaking now
Breathe, this will be easy
OK, stay calm, these aren't too bad
YES, I remember the answer to this
UH, I don't remember this in my notes
Breathe, this will be easy
**********
Oh god, I've failed
Seriously, that went all wrong
I only remembered half of it
Surely I have done better than this
That went so wrong
Why couldn't I remember
The answers should of been there
Surely I have done better than this
I've failed I know it
To the gutters, surely go
I wait and wait the dreaded results
Heart fails......I passed
Author notes
otiopn B b2) Write a poem about preparing, writing, and after taking a test. How do you feel? How do you look? What is going through your mind?
Well thats interesting, I have seperated the poem into the three option of before test, during test and after test with getting the results. This is how i actually felt when taking the theory test to get my driving license as it started easy then felt like it went all wrong yet i still passed. this is a strange write and i'm not too keen on it fully myself but i have attempted to create a repetitive sense through all the tenses with repeating the last line and in the before test i have repeated the first two lines to attempt to gain the feeling what you get when revising as you go over and over again without remembering it everytime, well it is for me anyway lol so i hope you like this
Please do not for the purpose of the contest say who i am thanks all

Wow, I know this felt weird for you, but that IS the point of the contest; this poem made me FEEL what you were going for. I enjoyed reading this write, keep it up and enjoy your writes, afterall if you can't -- who will? Small thing - Is panic with a k for comedic purposes? It works, but just wondering.

lol i don't know, i see your point about it working as a comedic purpose so you could be right but i think that was mainly a spelling mistake but it works with the context of the poems sort of light humour created within again, thanks for the trophy lol

Well it does fit, and the poem really shows your emotions, and what you are going through. Poems are a window into the authors soul, and I think you showed that perfectly.

definatly the feelings and the situations afer the exams but hopefully like this we weill all pass everything
good write -
Lol! Can defeatly relate to that. Just double the panic in the tone and it would be me! Lol! It was a great write and i like the way you split it and each time had the last line repeated in each section if that makes any sense! And the last line was dudey as well as it creates the suspense and blah de blah! Dudey though! Good Luck!
