The Final Step

By Anonymous

I walk into the gym ready to lift

I sit on the turf, stretching out my arms and legs,

To prepare myself for the workout ahead.


I go over to the squat rack in front of me. 

The heavy college application rests on my shoulders. 

My arms and legs are getting tired and achy, 

But I know I am almost done typing. 


My eyes are burning from looking at the screen,

My body is exhausted, 

I drag myself over to the Stairmaster. 

I get ready to press start. 


The long journey ahead of me begins.

After a while, I look at the top of the screen,

I am almost finished, with the steps. 


Finally, I see the confetti falling from the top,

My workout is finished, 

I had reached the final step.
