Winter - Adult Fomantix

In some ways, a goodbye is the purest, most meaningful form of expression. Whether a misty-eyed hug or an offhand text message, it reaffirms your connection to someone and brings finality to an interaction. It’s also a beautifully ephemeral, yet inherently heavy gesture—a wistful “until next time” that traps a moment in amber, and all but ensures your next meeting will be shaped by different feelings and circumstances. Goodbyes are hard—treacherous, even—and Samira Winter is no stranger to their intoxicating bittersweetness.
