I

Exam Phobia

Working late into the night
Nodding off in the laps of my open book
I was breathing in endless formulae and integers.
Had many black and white dreams which were made of these.
A crowd of numbers and equations : E = mc^2.
I was walking fast through a busy street.
Running behind the formulae to catch a hold of them.
No way, I started shouting their names.
But hearing me shouting formulae someone held my shoulder and shook me.
I felt dizzy and woke up only to realize that it was none other than my mom.
She had a warm bright smile on her face which showed me her care.
But these days of exam phobias are what we really miss now a days.
