DAY 1637-1651

Feb 25 - Mar 11

Night has arrived, 

Another day survived,

The medical student returns late.

Dinner has gone to waste,

For they only long to taste, 

That warm embrace of their own bed.

In stress they thrive,

In sickness they strive,

For attendance equates to proficiency,

From dawn to dusk, 

They put on a mask,

To shield others from their own deficiency.

Exams are a priority, 

So say the majority,

The mindset of a student is resolute,

Like modulus in mathematics,

Or temperature in thermodynamics,

Their conviction is thus absolute.

From students to doctors in a flash,

From scratching their heads, to treating the rash,

Repeating to themselves that old lie,

That this will all be worth it before they die.

Years of stress have taken their toll,

The once bubbly figures have lost their soul,

The cost of their dreams was their own health,

Have they never learnt that health is wealth?
