Two and a half months after the sudden and mysterious death of singer and Assam icon Zubeen Garg in Singapore, the state is still learning to live with the loss. For many, the shock has reduced slightly with time, but the pain remains. For his wife, Garima Saikia Garg, the healing is much slower. She has been sharing her grief, her silence, and her memories through small but deeply emotional posts on social media.
Her latest Facebook post, shared on Monday, once again shows how heavy her days have been without Zubeen. The post carries a single line that reads, “The sound flowing from your heart to mine I dissolve entirely in you.” The line appears simple, but the emotion behind it is strong. It reflects how deeply connected the couple had been—spiritually, emotionally, and musically.
Along with the line, Garima also shared a handwritten Assamese poem. The poem, written in her own hand, is left untranslated by her. She chose to keep it in its original form, almost as if the language itself holds a memory she does not want to disturb. The poem expresses her quiet cries for her beloved and her call for justice for the singer, who remains an irreplaceable figure in Assam’s cultural landscape. 
In one part of the poem, she writes about love that stretches from “the first dawn of the world till now,” and about memories and moments that stay alive even when the person is gone. The lines reflect her longing, her loneliness, and the deep bond she continues to feel with Zubeen.
The post has moved thousands of people who follow her. Fans across Assam, and even those outside the state, are still mourning the singer’s death. Many commented that Garima’s words made them feel the loss again. Others said they could sense the weight she carries every day.
Since Zubeen’s passing, Garima has shared several small notes on social media, each revealing a little more of her pain. Her posts show that while she is trying to move forward, she is still holding on to the memories of the man who was not only her husband but also one of the greatest musical figures Assam has ever seen.
