Failed efforts, bad results
Red remarks.
Complaining teachers, mocking friends
furious parents.
Stressful days, forgotten zeal
Caged desires
A never-ending cycle
Fighting same battle weaponless
With no breakthrough
Until the day all turned worthless
Like broken words,
Shattered hope, crippled dreams
Nothing mattered just like that
Curfew was broken
Rules were just on paper
not across the heart
Laughing turned to fear
Respect took u-turn to mockery
Proving them
Nothing mattered but my world,
Dreams and desires
If not to them but to me
Choosing to learn from the world rather
Than four walls a.k.a classroom
Facing the challenge with head held high
Nothing like one who held it low 
In fear and respect
