Crossroads.

For all those students, for whom entrances/boards didn't turn out well.

I look ahead, and I see fear. Look backwards, and I see guilt.

That time of year, now it's here; Results, marks, and all that filth.

The chills that run down your spine; Screwdom, you have made me thine.

Hope, now at its highest pitch. Oh fate! thou art a heartless bitch!

A Rank decides all my worth? A dog's collar has greater girth.

What did I do, that turned so wrong?  I did my best, sung my swan song.

Though I've tried, strived all along, Defeat greets me, and mistakes throng.

When I see books, I shed a tear. That the system sucks, its fucking clear.

You plunged ahead to reach the peak; but in all you saw, you saw no end.

Now the world crowns you a freak. You're left alone, no love, no friend.

Is there a backdoor in this maze? Could I just skip away this phase?

You wonder, with a startled gaze, wherein lies that divine face?

Entered the road, with hopes aflame; As I exit it, I seem not the same.

The road ahead's now truly lame; Life's a horrid little unfair game.

At the crossroads, now we stare; Uncertainty, a certain nightmare!

Now where we are, and where we were. I can't fathom life's ways, I swear!!!
