Freedom

Here's another, three guesses for what this is about.

Freedom

Finality is fast approaching now,
That prevailing sense of relief,
The tension ebbs, the stress released,
There shall be no more grief.

We struggled through and onwards,
Past all that would distract,
In the end remains one shock,
How is our sanity still intact?

Still even when you're finished,
You sit and ponder how you did,
Wondering, will it be quite enough?
These thoughts you should forbid.

Don't look over your shoulders,
Ignore the future yet to come,
Bask in the summer sunshine,
It's over now, you're done.

Leave it left forgotten,
Until there is but no other choice,
Go enjoy yourself, that's freedom,
Live life and just rejoice.
