Exams loom, a weight on the mind
A burden heavy, a stress to unwind
Days blend together, a blur of time
As studying consumes, a constant grind

The pressure mounts, a sense of fear
A dread of failure, a constant peer
Overwhelmed and anxious, a feeling so real
A sense of calm, a distant ideal

Sleepless nights, a tired-eyes gaze
A mind racing, a never-ending maze
Questions swirl, a jumble of thought
A search for answers, desperately sought

But then it ends, a final sigh
A relief washes, a feeling to the sky
A weight lifted, a burden released
A sense of pride, a joy increased.
