Final lines....

Well, I've had a good look, and we've had Backward Stories, and First Lines, but I can't find another thread on these lines....

What would be a final line, or (at the most) the two last lines of a story that would make you think: Wow, I wish someone would write that story!?

Sometimes, just sometimes, things work out the way they're supposed to.

On reflection, he realised that getting sidetracked from his important journey had not been a waste of time.

On reflection, he wished he'd saved his personality on mirrored disks.

Everybody had lied to her. Now she knew the truth, she wished that was a lie too. But there was nobody left who could tell her that.
Somewhere far to the north, a storm was gathering.


To be continued. (naturally...)

As he faced the man who would be his executioner, he couldn't help but wonder if it had been worth it after all.
