Little Piece Of Her

It all started in her lap,

When I cried and she smiled.

She held me close to her heart,

To give me a glimpse of life and a touch of care.

This is a letter to my Mumma...

I feel incredibly grateful to have you as my mother. You know, when I think of you, so many different memories come to my mind - Memories that made a footprint on my head and heart for a lifetime. Although I know words aren't enough to express my love for you, I'm trying to be honest about what I feel for you. I really adore you the most. You will never leave me alone, even though I annoy you or hurt you. You will never ever leave my side, no matter what the circumstance, no matter what the time. You have always shown me complete acceptance, love, and understanding. You are the one who has accepted all my flaws, and you always try to shape me as a better person and a better human being. Those years when I lived far away, I never felt any distance between us because I know you loved and prayed for me from a distance. I know I am very poor at expressing my emotions, especially when it comes to you, and it is true that I sometimes disrespect what you say, I annoy the most, but believe me, hurting you is the most painful feeling ever, and I am really very sorry for all those mistakes.

As a kid, I always remember snuggling up to you on the couch and how much I love being cuddled by you. Even now, it is my comfort feeling. Just your presence makes me feel enlightened and joyed. It is heavenly. You know, when I saw you struggling with responsibilities, still managing home and us with utmost love and care. At that moment, I realized what true, selfless, unconditional love is all about. 

You always taught me that you can rise above in any circumstance. You taught me to give my best at everything I do. I remember ranting all my hard and bad decisions in my life (even today when I come from work) and feel confused about what to do. You always listen to all of the alternatives and hear my concerns without getting annoyed, and then you offer your best support, suggestions, and guidance.

When I grew up, I understood and felt your every pain you've gone through, still facing every obstacle, every difficulty of life with just a sweet smile. Whenever you shared your pain, it breaks me - like how you've managed that time without even complaining. 

I just want to say - You are my forever Bestie. Like I literally share everything with you, every uncomfortable talk, every weird thinking with no awkwardness and judgment. I just want to explore and vibe with you. I really mean it when I say - I am blessed that I have you, and I promise I will surely make you feel proud and will make your every tiny dream come true and the belief you have in me - it is my biggest strength. I will never let you down. I love you, Mumma.

She is more than just my friend,

I call her MUM, She is my pride.

No matter what, she will be in my heart,

In every memory and never far apart.

Cause she is the only one 

Like whom I will find no other.
