I Failed

Once my nerves had settled in I was at ease And ready to see how I had done I felt confident on how I would do Because I sped through the first ten But kind of struggled on the last few It was my third time doing this And I failed the last two So another performance such as that Would really leave me feeling blue It had been over an hour Since I had finished And the greater my eagerness The more my confidence had diminished This nervousness I had Was something that was quite rare I guess it really showed That I actually cared Because I was not repeating this class Even if I was dared My anticipation was at its peak And my patience was very thin I just had to see my grade While my confidence was at a level ten… To bad my grade was not It was about as bad as a sin What could I have possibly done wrong Maybe I forgot to turn it in Too bad I could not complain about it Because I promised I would not make a scene Three bad grades in a row Would not deter my confidence I found a way to control my anxiety And I have been passing sense Pride is a terrible thing to waste So I used it as guidance Many left that class after that test Some stayed and like me… Thought that decision was not the best But we proudly made it, too bad for the rest
