"Education"

He is a white owl amid sparrows
and his mind was ready to learn.
 
Teachers pushed him to his best
and his friends looked up to his mind.
 
But he never was able to take flight
with his weights of endless work.
 
He gave everything until he was empty
but the tests never stopped.
 
He is a white owl amid sparrows
and he is trapped in a cage of education.
