Parting is such sweet sorrow...
Not so long ago, during what felt like an outpouring of his live, there came a moment when everything stopped. Time stood still, and his soul become trapped in that very moment. It was like a coiled spring that could extend and stretch, but ultimately, it always returned to its original shape. Back to that frozen moment in time. He doesn't know when you'll see each other again or what the world will be like when you do. You may both have seen so many horrible things. But he will think of you every time he needs to be reminded that there is beauty and goodness in this strange thing we call life.
