I Lost Someone Important to Me

Loss, Losing, Lost

I've never really cared for the term "lost" or "losing" when it comes to the death of someone, or at the end of a relationship. It sounds like they've been misplaced, or wandered off into the woods. Whenever I hear it, it makes me want to look under the couch cushions, just in case.

I agree. I know the word "loss" has multiple meanings and it's correct to say, but having suffered many "losses" I agree, the term does not seem to be enough to describe the finality and pain behind someone you love being eternally gone from this physical world.
