In Memoriam

Posted on by Reena Saxena

I look inwards to see the baby up there, whom I miss so much. Then, I see two naughty pups watching my next move and think maybe she is already back with me.

How do I know if a soul rests in peace, is contemplating her return to the world in a fresh reincarnation, or is walking amidst us on Planet Earth? Has she developed superpowers, or is she still struggling to overcome the past like I do?

Am I sleepwalking in a cemetery with candles and flowers? Belief pulls me back near the exit door.


I’m not gone, I’m here.
