final kiss

Goodbye before leaving

A final kiss is a last kiss shared before parting, whether temporary or permanent.

The phrase often carries weight—a goodbye at an airport, a farewell before death, or the end of a relationship: They shared a final kiss before she boarded the train.

In funeral contexts, mourners may give a final kiss to the deceased.
