Nowhere to run, nowhere to flee.
Thrown into a deep depression
an eternal spiral, a haunting lesson.
Incessant tests, quizzes, exams
all grisly features of the gruesome program.
Binders and papers cram our knapsacks,
straining our shoulders, hurting our backs.

No longer am I excited to learn,
for I know of consequences that immensely burn.

when my broken life makes its final mends.
But I know that school will never adjourn,
so forever will I cry and mourn...
