Success Story

'Don’t you realise that one person’s dream can be another person’s living nightmare?'

'You told me my value was measured by my marks / But I don't think this is how it works'

'I am the athlete / running in a race / in which I didn’t participate.'

'For it had come with the message, that an endless sky existed beyond the ceiling of the exam hall.'

'I stare at the clock that glowers at me, like a demon crouching on the wall.'

I read the banner, "You can be the next one!", it says, and I know I can’t.
