These lines were written for my son who is studying for an important exam

Keep fighting

So near and close, to the finishing line

Few steps is all that

Success needs

Don’t get lost

In cheers or boos

Just stay in the lines, keep working on it

And fight the urge

To do nothing

Sweaty palms, forehead in flames

Neck gathering water

From humid air

Tickling nose

Sneeze coming in pairs

Just stay in the lines, keep working on it

And fight the urge

To do nothing

Minutes will pass, hours will be lost

Days will add into

Barren weeks

Futile will be wandering

Focusing on pain

Just stay in the lines, keep working on it

And fight the urge

To do nothing
