Odin,
I miss you every single day. There isn’t a moment that passes where you aren’t with me in some way, where your presence still lingers. Losing you felt like my heart was ripped out of my chest, leaving a hollow space that nothing can fill. Life hasn’t been the same since you left, and I don’t think it ever will be.
You weren’t just my dog. You were my constant, my comfort, my quiet understanding in moments when words didn’t matter. You were there for the ordinary days and the hardest ones, offering loyalty without question and love without limits. Now, even when I smile, there’s pain behind it - a sadness that lives quietly in the background - because you’re not here to share those moments anymore.
The world feels different without you in it. Sometimes I still expect to hear your paws, to see your wagging tail, to feel that familiar presence that once made everything feel okay. Loving you was easy; living without you has not been.
But even in the ache, I’m grateful. Grateful for every memory, every laugh, every moment of joy you gave me. Grateful that I knew a love so deep it could hurt this much when it was gone. You changed me, Odin, and that’s something time can never take away.
I hope you’re somewhere happy now - running free, surrounded by endless toys, tennis balls to chase, and sticks to carry proudly. I hope you’re at peace, feeling nothing but comfort and excitement, just as you gave to me when you were here. I like to imagine you joyful and free, safe and unburdened, watching over me with that same steady love.
You were taken far too early. I will always grieve the time we should have had, the moments still unwritten. Until the day we meet again, know that you are missed more than words can say. You will always be a part of me. My heart carries you forward, even when it hurts.
Forever my good boy.
