“When someone exits your life, you don't die instantly; instead, you begin to perish in pieces. You no longer catch the scent they wore, and a part of you fades away. You miss witnessing them change their clothes, another fragment of yourself diminishes, and you yearn for the familiar whispers in those intimate moments, yet all that fills the silence are echoes of your dreams, and so it continues. Until eventually, you feel nothing, see nothing—just an overwhelming emptiness and a deafening silence”
