The Final Step

Heart racing

Adrenaline pulsing through the veins

Inhaling deeply the crispy wind

Slicing your throat

Hearbeat stops for a second

Trying to compose yourself has become harder with each step

Your head has been weighing you down

The lack of sleep has drained your face from light

Baggy eyes showing your sign of defeat

You walk into the building

Th sleepless nights finally catch up to you as you take your seat

Wanting so badly to go home and lay in our matress

But you cannot

You have been waiting for this moment that you now dread

The one that will determine your fate
