Losing someone you didn't have to lose and knowing you'll never get them back is one of the worst feelings in the world. "Goodbye" is the hardest thing to say.
Love every moment you share with those around you. Never leave words unsaid.
(P.S., everything's fine with the fiance. I had to say goodbye to a friend who I may not be able to speak to for a very long time to come. The last two days have been a constant bombardment of all the worst parts of nostalgia.)
