Done this too.
It's always the same with you.
Methinks it's just another case of déjà screw.
I don't believe in long goodbyes.
Just sayanara, adios, arrivederci, auf wiedersehen and adieu ...

Author's Note

Pete
"Only nature has a right to grieve perpetually, for she only is innocent. Soon the ice will melt, and the blackbirds sing along the river which he frequented, as pleasantly as ever. The same everlasting serenity will appear in this face of God, and we will not be sorrowful, if he is not." - Thoreau
