..
The Last Pair of Your Shoes …
It
was Summer and all I remember it was
Tough,
Tragic and Painful, But After Seeing her Smile,
My
all Tears went Away Day by Day everything was getting worse,
Her
Smile was still the most Beautiful thing in the Universe
She
was sick and Was not able to walk properly ,
I
tried to help her, By Holding her soft hands , took her to terrace,
There
were 2 chairs we seated on them, then I pulled her legs and put them
on my
Lap I was about to kiss her feet suddenly She took off her feet
from my lap and
said don’t do this my daughter,
I
said mom when I was newly born I never refused you to kiss my feet
and for that you owe me,
She
in that hugged me and said can you hold my hand again,
I
want to take rest, after we entered in room she said, I m feeling A
bit better why
don’t you go and buy a new pair of shoes for me, I
said I'll only go if you promise
you will have a good sleep without
thinking about anything
she
said OK my dear,
I
helped her laying on bed, she as promised Slept I took my bag and
went for
buying a new pair of shoes,
In
a shop, I saw a pair, it was mom's favourite colour I got the size and
it was soft as
my mom needed.
After
buying them I came back home, mom was having dinner, she was fine
after
years I showed her the pair of shoes She wore them but wasn't
able to walk in
them, So we decided that she will wear on Eid day,
I
prayed to Allah Almighty, to Grant Health to my beloved mother
So
she can be able to stand and walk wearing those pair of shoes.
Eid
day came, She was not well more then few days before,
I
helped her taking shower and dressed her up
When
I opened the cupboard, shoes was in there, My mom started crying and
said Nida I still can't wear them and walk on,
This
time I hugged her, kissed her forehead and said
Everything
gonna be fine Soon.
More
days passed it was October 2011,
She
left home on stretcher, then she never came back
Today
I m still having that Last pair of shoes,
which
she wore on bed just to see a look,
I
kissed the shoes just like I used to kiss her feet when she was Alive
O
mom you are not here but I can still Feel your soul alive inside my
body,
I
Love you so much more than the Pain of living without you,
And
I will Always take care of your last pair of shoes.
Thanks
to Allah Almighty for Giving me such a wonderful Mother
who
is still here with me,
Whether
In actual she is not.
Miss
you Mother , Love you .
