The chances of redemption Sinking lower every second The fires licking closer Any second he will beckon The nervous feeling escalates He seems to smell my fear My mind now gets to screaming But I know no one can hear My brain goes blank I cannot feel His eyes connect with mine My heart drops to my stomach And my ears now fill with noise As quickly as it tumbled down My heart begins to rise The teacher sighs and looks away I’m saved from my demise! The bell that first had filled my ears Now sounds like some sweet music Amazing how so harsh a sound Can nearly seem artistic I grab my things and leave the class As a weight lifts off my chest I head through the hall but soon recall I’m headed for a test.
