Gone is a word that is reflecting in my mind.

gone GONE, pp. of go; pronounced nearly gawn. 1. Departed. It was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath. 1 Kings.2. 2. Advanced; forward in progress; with far, farther, or further; as a man far gone in intemperance. 3. Ruined; undone. Exert yourselves, or we are gone. 4. Past; as, these happy days are gone; sometimes with by. Those times are gone by. 5. Lost. When her masters saw that the hope of their gains were gone---Acts.16. 6. Departed from life; deceased; dead. I can identify with each of these definitions today. Yes this is a bit melancholy... Sorry
