Scrolling through Facebook, Born to Run in my ears,
My friends celebrate that they're in the clear;
The beginning of their career.

There's no Wendy running with me, but that's ok.
She'd only get in my way.

Picking my life I jumped the gun. In bed at one for a bus at half five;
"The body is dead but the spirit is alive!"

Trying to read my scripts on the bus, fighting open my eyes.
Won't be back for a while, so mother's last words; sweet goodbyes.

Stepping off the bus, my baggage is heavy; the suitcase too.
My body is worn, my jacket is torn, and there's rain in my shoe.

Wendy. Where are you?
Refer to Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" and Romans 8:10.

I've been awake for too long.
Sleeping every night you'd think I would've got the hang of it by now
But the last year, sleep has eluded me.

Now I sit pre-dawn hour.
Preparing myself.
Settling an upset stomach,
Turmoil of emotions.
A sea of anxiety -
Chaotically churning chyme
As time goes turning on.

Fooled myself that I was neutral.
That I would be happy no matter the outcome.
Yet, here I am. Sweating fear.
Like I'm out gun so I have to out run bullets.

Radical Critical Acceptance.
Is my only line of defense
Against the offense of uncertainty
No point worrying about what I'm going to be dealt - pointless action.
Deal me the cards and I'll work from there.

We're all **** in the new dawn.
Naked in our actions, our motives
All wanting a plethora of letters
In a hundred different combinations.

So as that sun rises
Like a single old wise iris
Dispelling it's light on me
I wonder -
what will today bring?
Either way, I'm certified that I'm leaving.
Getting my results from my exam in 4 hours after two years of studying. So just a tad nervous.

Don't worry about the results,
They will be really favourable,
Now we know where happiness lies,
And also where happiness lies,
Our ardent fervour will pay off,
And against the Sun we'll shine,
For we sincerely put our efforts.
Don't worry buddy. CPMT is done now. Only the much easier PMET remains and you should not turn down the volume of your dedication taking it as being the easier exam.

I am so proud of your tireless efforts, Kripi. Your Drona loves you for giving it your best shot.

Don't give up. Bear the spirit of a tigeress as you always do. Things can only shine for both me & you.

Even everyone here will be praying for both your cousin Swati's and your own favourable results, and trust me, these positive vibrations will do you good.

My HP Poem #857

its probably harder to receive you exam results than to attain them,
expectations makes it worse and they always aim very high,
looking back to the mistakes you took in your exams ,its a horror.
you wanna go back in time and rewrite even if you know you wrote right.
Dung trampled upon
Though soft, boneless and painless
Cripples a good leg
A great proverb for the wise ones

I'm not sure if you realize
just how many of my smiles
are a direct result of you.
In fact, most mornings
you're the sole reason
I bother removing myself
from the safe confines of my bed.

Time wrapped in blanket of eternity
Spectator to so many events diurnally
Chronicled in the roster, every detail
Aware of all the future episodes
Holds the answers to forthcoming trials
Time will decide the outcome of actions
Testimony to history of this celestial body

— The End —
