"Going to School, Coming to home.Holding a laptop, opening the Chrome.I am child for love.But I'm under a life so though.I am an owl of night.Wake up and study, Alright!Never knew where it ends.Seeing my parents worried, I'm so Tense!What's the way out?I must find.An aim to choose that's what to find.To find an aim, I'm so blind.Never knew what the book means.I am a baby just of dreams.life is short, my hope is God.All wishes coming true, that's what no one has ever got.Why do I need to try,When looking failure, why do eyes too cry?Why so fear, I am strong, That's a lie!Books what are you, there for?my mind is so dumb, you know for sure.Learn to Earn, a rule of fools.Earn to learn, that's a tool.books are you making us a fool?why a student am I so cool?Need a purpose to go to school.Advise me reader if you know something.I am your friend, now tell me something.My problem so small.Why go to school and miss the mall?Why students are filled across the hall?"
