During a test

I literally wrote this during a test

So this is where i'm meant to give up?
Sitting in this room, staring at pages I know nothing of
Well maybe this is just what life is, a test
And maybe there's more to these random symbols scribbled on white paper
I try not to think about it anymore
And I try not to succumb to those wicked thoughts
Of blame and self loathing.
I'm tired of doing so much and not knowing.
Why.
Why?
Is there a reason for all this?
A bigger picture I'm yet to see?
These philosophical ramblimgs flow out best
When I'm in the middle of a confusing test

Nicely done! A couple of typos ("sitting in THIS room"......"philosophical"), and also a couple of lines shouldn't end in periods (since the following lines appear to be continuing the thought), but this is amazing! Very philosophical; very profound! Love the structure and the flow! Simply fantastic! Well done!

I can totally see myself in this passage: "staring at pages I know nothing of." I'm currently preparing for a major exam and done taking a lot of formative tests. I probably need a brain break. Good job for pointing out the emotions in this kind of dreadful situation. A very relatable piece. Well done!

Simply excellent! I've had the same thoughts myself countless times and yet I believe the answer is in the flow of our pens like the thoughts in our minds. Stopping is so easy to do in life that it feels like an willful put down, but going on is the challenge I think your strong enough to accomplish. :) Personally, I try to get some enjoyment out of some tests, though that sounds crazy, its keeps the frustration from swelling into my mind while I plan better answers. I'd say take it one word and syllable at a time and you'll do just fine. lol Take care and keep writing. :)

Thank you for the encouragement. Sometimes, it just gets frustrating writing tests continually, but I would take it one at a time. That's all I can do.

those random symbols probably escape in the form of unknown letters, which could give you only the feelings of 'self-loathing', otherwise, you could get its meaning. beautiful write arises many questions..

Life is a test. It's true. Whatever we write, it's all up to us. Good Karma or the Bad Karma. During this process/test, the examiner, GOD, keeps numb and keep testing us. For what's the point of Test if results are inevitable and all visible. It's all up to us. Let's keep doing our Best, without bothering about the results. Those who stick to the truth are the ones who are rewarded. He is all Mercy. Keep going!

Well said Sid. I have been so frustrated recently, but somehow, I haven't given up. I just hope I get the best result out of all my efforts.
