Splashing in my math book
Algebraic expressions looking at me
Will you ever work on my favour
Waking up with my granny on the bedside
looking at me with faith
as she say “l know you will make me
pro..” Disturbed by her cough
Will l be able to finish the sentence
Snacks flying across me
Friends passing them to one another
with my dry mouth craving even a mouse
will my future also fly like this
“Pens down” as the teacher
command.The question ring
again will my tears build an empire
