Construction Sites

We all have walls

Full of emotions
Combinations of happiness, sadness, hope, fear
Built by construction men we call our conscience
Everyday our wall is poked on by haters
Everyday a crack is left behind
Let us not let these words of discouragement leave a big hole in our wall
Unable to be covered up by magic gravel
If we go on like this, emotional
Breakdown is not too far away
We can see them waiting for our downfall
But will we let them win? No
So build back your wall , build a house if possible with that determination
That’s the kind of house we should all be living in
We all deserve to live a good life.

Short Story: Results

She teetered between both ends. Should she or should she not? This, after all, could make or break her. She absolutely was not ready for this. The one time she hoped there would be a delay. She had woken up that morning only to receive the news. She suddenly had a sense of foreboding and her entire morning was ruined. She had put off taking a look all day. Quite frankly she did not know what to expect. If it was not good, her entire summer break would be ruined. If it was bad and she kept quiet, her parents were bound to ask. Worse still, some outsider could tell them about it. Then she would only have so much time to stall. Who came up with this dreadful system of rating anyway? Why should numbers and some letters have to define a person anyway? After all, nothing is ever actually a hundred percent accurate. Taking a deep breath, she finally came to a decision. She could not ignore it forever. What was coming would come and she had no choice but to meet it when it did. She was going to check it. The horrifying results of the exams she had written. The results whose arrival had caused her to age ten years in a day. She typed in her matriculation number and clicked on enter. There, she had done it. She blinked and the page loaded. "Well, here goes nothing..."
