The Weight Of What We Carry

On the top of the wall, there it hangs. A large clock with it's disturbing sound.

There he was, sitting on that comfy couch, the only thing that was there on the floor of that room. It looks like a newly built house, half furnished, painted with white. Surrounded by those empty walls, looking at the only thing moving.. It is his large clock hands. The clock that he took from his previous apartment.

The clock keeps repeating its ticking sound with every second, while he can hear it multiple times. Every "tick" is echoed through this empty space. He stares to the wall without making a move. But, his mind is travelling to places. It is the weight of what we carry - he said. He kept going back to that sentence as if it touched him deeply.

In his mind, it felt more of a sentence that he came across, rather than one of his own made up thoughts.

I like the way you end. (It seemed more like a phrase than what I was actually thinking.) This makes me reread, you make me think, I leave something unread ....then reread it and I fully understand what you mean.
I liked your work. I wish you a happy Thursday.

Such a good comment to receive!! Thanks..

To be honest, there is no real ending to it. I had stuff in mind to add. But, I wanted to keep it open... But, if you re-read it, then I think you had more to say than what you have wrote..
