Joint Entrance Exam
Joint entrance exam or jee mains as they say
When all your blood and sweat comes down to one day
Enrollment in the coaching classes
Thought I would be unique but was one in masses
With utmost vigor I started this journey
Completely investing my time, health and money
Sooner or later it was made clear
Get into iits or your future would be led bare
My dreams were my only fuel
My hardwork turned into my tool
Burning the midnight oil made sense
When both night owl and morning cock could feel my presence
Excelling in academics wasn’t new but failure was
And giving up wasn’t in the clause
The journey ended with a wink yet appeared so slow
Because you had to give up all the fun and night life’s glow
Finally the D-DAY came
Only extreme nervousness, anxiety and ambiguity was in the frame
With my hands shivering
It was jee that I was solving
It finally ended
Shattered my dreams and destination it mended
I questioned the idea of happy ending
But realized a lot more is waiting
