Beautifully written and so moving in its pain and its joy.

I love this observation:

In his whole life, he has always been the one to do the leaving. But she has left him behind.

And this one breaks my heart in how true it is:

It was not noble; they found no self-satisfying solace in silent restraint. It is a terrible love, and he does not wish it upon anyone else.

Amazing stuff!
