Taylor says she's struggling to process Mason's death ... and she shared several pictures of them together while she was on tour, highlighting how close they became.
In her lengthy IG post, Taylor says ... "When someone knows every dark secret about you and never judges, spends 24 hours a day with you seven days a week, you form a bond that is hard to explain."
She also shared a GoFundMe started by Mason's family.
As TMZ reported ... Mason spent years working in close protection ... with the Kardashians among his first celebrity clients. He previously said he had worked with Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner and Kanye West ... along with Kevin Hart, Nicki Minaj, Charlie Puth and Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton.
Mason leaves behind his wife, Fay, daughter Brooke and son Noah. The fundraiser will help cover his memorial and ease the family's financial burden as they grieve. He was only 52.
