My Lisa, who spent the last17 years with me, attending to all my needs without
any complaint and accompanying me, day and night and in rain and snow, has left
me forever.
Let me recall our past and thereby lessen the intensity of my sorrow.
There was not a single day when I did not touch your pomegranate-hued,
soft-skinned body.
The days we spent like Shiva and Parvati will always remain deeply embedded in
my mind.
Your passions and desires made my life active and worth living.
Whenever I exchanged pleasantries with my friends, keeping my hand on your
shoulder and leaning against your body, I felt so proud that I even thought
that I was in some other world.
There is one picture which is etched in my memory.
It depicts you, severely injured in an accident and, yet, looking at me, lying
semi-conscious beside you, with eyes swollen by sorrow and emotions.
We were real soulmates. That is why you risked your own life innumerable times
to save me from accidents.
I did not want to leave you to the funeral home. But I did not have any other
option. It was with a heavy heart that I left you there.
My only prayer is that I am able to see you in a new life with greater beauty
than ever.
Science and technology have been developing at an unbelievable pace.
By now, you might have even attained rebirth with a new heart and a new life.
Today, you may even be making a pleasure trip with your new partner. Yet, you
may be keeping memories of me somewhere in your heart.
I will never forget your name and your family — LeSabre, the pomegranate-hued
beauty from the Buick family.
