Poem

A Broken Soul

Finally, the day of the exam,

I knew had come,

I had studied a lot,

And was prepared for any sort.

The exam was held,

And I knew I did very well,

I went home and praised my mother,

And got blessed by the holy hands of her.

I was not at all anxious,

As the result would not be vicious,

And would not make mother furious,

So I waited and waited, so curious.

Now, the result in my hand,

I opened the envelope,

No laugh from my friends,

I had topped in the exams.

I ran and ran and ran,

Till I reached home to stand,

And show everyone the paper,

That had made me caper.

My family was very happy,

My friends were a bit gloomy,

But my best friend was left,

Whom I had to tell at the end.

At last I went to meet him,

Without knocking, I entered his room,

And found him very very gloom,

I asked him the matter so grim.

My stomach churned on hearing,

The news that was so depressing,

I tried to comfort my friend,

But he remained the same and didn't bend.

The loss of a beloved mother,

Can make everyone's heart broken,

See the way our short spanned life goes,

When I was happy, my friend suffered the most.
