The Passing by Wils
100 Word Flash Fiction contest entry

Tick...tick...tick

I don’t have long. I’ve known for a while but now I can really feel it, the eeriness you get as the last drips of life are squeezed from you. I try to hang on, but it is a lost cause.

Tick…tick...tick

It’s nice that so many have come to my passing. I have served them well and hopefully leave them with happy memories, or at least a sense of hope. Sometimes that is all you need.

My successor has plans. I wish I could stick around but my time draws near. Goodbye world!

Tick…

“Happy New Year!”
