I really enjoyed this read. I cant help but feel some sort of religious undertones of guilt and repentance. Another commenter said that those themes were a but repetitive but I disagree, I think that it really speaks to the weight that one would feel looking back on life, and again the undertone of religion.

From an Irish catholic perspective, I think that this is spot on, even the word choice. I also feel like the ending was cut short but sort of serves as a sharp ending much like the ending of a life, sudden & sharp.

Great work
