Failure
I always scored well in exams
But fell ill in 10th grade
I was demoted by the mams
Out of shame I lived in shade
I felt ashamed sitting with juniors
There was lurking defeat n dejection
My buddies still were my seniors
All the time I cursed my luck and rejection
with once juniors ,I started working hard
I was rereading what I did sometimes back
Day n night I slogged for better report card
took extra classes, for in no subject I wanted to lack
Hope I will make it better this time
I'll not indulge in self pity ,failure is no crime.
