Words were not enough, are not enough, and will not be enough to describe that single person.Today I am here to express my feelings towards my mum through not so great words of mine. I just can’t describe my gratitude and love for you mum, I just can’t thank you enough mum. Sure, no words will compliment you enough.All that I am or I ever hope to be I owe it you mum. Although I cannot hear your voice or see you,I just wish you were here every day I wondered how life would have been if only you were around. I just miss you so bad so much.

They say god couldn’t be present everywhere in the world so he made mothers to make up the loss. Really?????

I always had this question tangling in my head why he took the god away from me?? you left us too soon whom shall I blame people used to come around and always pitied me. I acted strong all this time I am still acting strong as if nothing happened. I cried so much so hard thinking you will comeback but you never did I always think about you every time I feel low, I miss you, whenever I see my friends cuddling with their mums, I missed you secretly every time dad scolded me, I missed you. All these years I have been missing you so very much, I don’t know if it’s my imagination or not but sometimes at nights I felt your presence that gentle caressing touch on my cheeks, I used to wake up and think its you checking on me if I am alright or not and I used to sleep thinking again you will come back but. And I think about my little brother who was only ten months when you left. I at least had cherished you your love it was short but sweet mum but he doesn’t even know how you looked how were you how loving caring you were all there was left were photographs, all he ever did was innocently asking about you ,making us miss you more .poor little creature doesn’t even know what it feels to be in the embrace of mum. I feel bad for him too but he never complains to us, may be inside he feels but he never shows. Last thing that you left to us was him. I was seven when I lost you mum you were gone but you left void no one would fill. You were the epitome of love affection sacrifice and generosity. You used to walk beside me, laugh with me in such a joy, whenever I cried those soft gentle hands of yours were always there to wipe my tears away, oh how much I miss those warm cozy hugs from you mum, no one will understand my fears better than you mum. I have missed so much all these years long. It’s just you aren’t visible too see around with these human eyes. I talk to you in silence hoping your spirit will reply. I know you are somewhere around watching….

 I merely remember you did everything to please each and every member of family. in lieu of that you didn’t wanted anything. We also took you and all effort for us for granted. Now I am getting it mum all those little things that you did for us. But its too late now, I have always wanted to tell these things in person…..but life is cruel because you left us too soon and living in reality is harsh because you aren’t around.

I still cry missing you mum

And knowing this makes my heart ache so bad

I love you mum…………………………………….see you on the other side
