Shaking, she held the paper in her hand
Raging, she tore the printed sheet in two
Swearing, distraction as her old enemy
Moving, more quickly than ever for she had work to do
Determined, she set off to work on her desk
Frustrated, the 7’s dancing in her mind
Hopeful, the book’s pages sighed as she flipped past
Struggling, the cubic temptation in front was never kind
Weakened, the screen held her gaze for too long
Passive, she let her hands slip from knowledge
Forgetful, the teacher’ll be waiting on his desk
Unaware, the hourglass’s thin sands against her oath and pledge
Surprised, she only had little time left
Panicked, she read her way through the deep night
Exhausted, she fell on the bed yet to finish
Restless, dreams about the incomplete work kept it in sight
Nervous, she dragged herself along the halls
Hesitant, one foot in front of the other
Frightened, saw the teacher standing by the desk
Hopeless, sat on her chair, test no longer a bother
Empty, she had answered all that she could
Impatient, the wait was longer than she thought
Mistaken, come the next day it was given then
Numb, verdict had been delivered, her work all for naught
Enraged, remembered the man in the cube
In love, his perfection flashed in her thought
Bitter, his skills on the screen that had trapped her
Surrendering, knowing his very being was all that she sought
Expecting, she went to collect what should be
Dreading, it was her turn to receive it
Hoping, it isn’t as bad as she expects
Failing, the 7’s on the card did make her want to sit
Shaking, she held the paper in her hand.
