Saudade; it’s the feeling you have when you realize that something you once lost is lost forever and will never be yours again

Get the saudade mug.
Describes the feeling of wanting but not currently having something or someone you had before. It particularly leans towards the more dreadful, lonely feeling of missing someone, instead of nostalgia.

It basically has the same meaning as "missing," but it's a noun.

This particular spelling is originated from Portuguese, but it also exists in Spanish and other Latin-derived languages.

Don't actually use it in an English sentence though, it sounds hella weird.
I feel so much saudade of my dog. Sometimes I get up to take him to walk but remember he's not with me anymore.
