Ramblings of an Exhausted Mind

Do this, do that

a reward you'll get-

-in appreciation, they said,

but exhaustion they forgot.

 

Do this, do that,

that'll help your grades

this year they said.

from good to bad.

 

Don't play, don't play

mug up your books they said

future will be fun they said,

the biggest lie our life has had.

 

I won't study, I said,

You'll ruin yourself, they said,

Do what you want-

- it's your life, they said,

and I think it was well said.
