It doesn't hurt. It's more of an emptiness in your chest and you don't remember why it's there. It's easy to forget why you feel like there's a part of you missing because things have slowly been fading away for awhile now. You just drifted apart for no particular reason. The worst part is remembering how happy you were (SweetPlacidity_) with them and realizing that things are no longer the same and they're not going to come back. Other times, it's as if they don't exist. It's unnerving how people can be so easily forgotten, how I can be forgotten. But you know, it was a quiet ending and that's all I could have ever asked for. Thank you for leaving quietly.
