I’m Right Here!

With his eyes locked into mine..

He lodged himself right within my heart;

Saying- “Don’t you now Cry anymore…”

For I’m Right Here!

Since Cocos passing on, every morning I’d wake up with a tear, until today, I woke up with a Vision of his face locked in my heart (during Ladakh trip)

I’d wonder how involuntary Greif is, It makes you Beautiful right through breaking you into pieces.

It makes you a child- Vulnerable enough to let your eyes through waters of salt speak & Courageous Enough to By Yourself let Be!

“But only if you’ve loved someone such that their presence by NONE can Fill!”

It weaves your soul into A Silence & bends your knees to Prayers, until you can pray No-more & in Surrender you only carry the fragrance of Their love!

“So Grief has its Place to Teach, For it Breaks You, Only To Reveal!”

-Someone suggested  us about Aryan Valley, after passing Kargil as there’s a quaint village home stay & a river running by, Where we would offer Cocos ashes as he loved to swim in rivers & lakes

There were no cars ahead or behind, it’s like the whole valley was woven from our hearts silence knowing well, the reason we were headed.

After a while, We took a break, to free our legs & Out of nowhere a dog came running towards us. As though he was waiting, there all by himself in this wilderness of this beautiful yet unforgiving landscape just to Greet us

He was so friendly & well behaved & I felt at home seeing him. As I kept asking him-

“Coco send you to us isn’t it, Coco send you”

He spent some time with us as we fed him & petted him to our hearts content!

Coco knew I was about to part away with half of his ashes, by the river & this was his way of giving me another sign that I’m with you, don’t be sad!
