That single letter on the result of your hard work.
It means too much.
See, there is only one real perk.
A hold on your heart, it holds its clutch.
In the future, that letter will carry your position.
Whether it carry's the position of a doctor or a cleaner, it holds something.
So being someone who enjoys success, getting the best is your mission.
And every night, you feel your mind tumbling.
Staying up until ungodly hours,
Thinking of an answer to that one question that kept you stumbling.
The knowledge in your mind grows to towers,
Yet in the morning it is only crumbling.
Piles of work, gone over and memorised.
The night brings recollection, the day brings ignorance.
Still that single letter is prized.
All that work, for people to only recognise your indifference.
One day it will be memorised and prized,
After what feels like eons of sleepless nights.
And once it has been memorised,
You look forward to seeing that 'A' with heights.
