Inspired by the heat of the moment- I passed my Grade 8 violin exam with a Distinction! I am so happy!

The title of the poem is taken from The Rasmus song, Time To Burn.

This can also be applied to Yami…in case you may wonder what this has to do with Yugioh at all…


Time To Burn

Flame of courage burns in my heart
As I take my last few strides.
The path to success lies out in front
Distraction and danger looms in on every side.

Too long have I been painstakingly striving,
Always been just below the best.
Too long have I been monotonically driving
Now I am better than all the rest.

Too hard I have toiled all these years
Melodramatic flame flares in my mind
Too harsh have I been on my spirit
Soon I will be able to rejoin my own kind.

It is time to end this journey of life
No need to assuage me from my fears.
This game is won; my purpose is done
No more need for blood, sweat and tears.

In this life there are too many surprises
Many lessons you will have to learn.
The burden of unfinished business is lifted
I spread my wings and burn.


Heads up! Free champagne to every reviewer! I have played the violin for eight whole years, now at last I have finished my final exam! It really is time to burn now!
