Losing your parents is never easy! It is a nightmare that we wish no one has to live through but eventually, everyone does. It takes a lot of courage to hold the parents’ memories when you know you can’t hold their hands anymore.
After 8 long years of losing his mother Mona Kapoor to cancer, Arjun Kapoor has shared a heartwarming post remembering his mother on Instagram. This beautiful post came along with an old handwritten poem he had penned for his mother when he was 12. It is something that everyone, who lost their mother could relate to and hence it touched many hearts.
He wrote,
“Found this handwritten poem of mine pardon the handwriting though… I wrote this for Mom when I was 12 years old. It’s maybe my most purest moment as a child where I felt loved & wanted to thank her for the love she gave me. I miss her love, I’m vulnerable every morning without it. I didn’t have a choice but to accept that I wouldn’t have her Love anymore… on most days it feels unfair & it bothers me, it consumes me I feel lost & helpless…. I’m just writing this as a son & nothing more. I wish I could hear her call me Beta one more time… I miss her all the Fucking time & it makes everything seem irrelevant more often than not… I broke 8 years back… now I wake up trying to fix myself every morning smile at life but honestly that vacuum shall never cease to exist. I don’t know why I’m venting but I guess life takes a toll on us because we are human & I confess I am no hero, I am no different it takes a toll on me too… Miss you Mom hope ur happy wherever you are… Love You the mostest…”
Handling the pain and grief that comes along with losing a parent never gets easy. It is the pain that stays with you forever.
At IFORHER, we pray for every soul, who is struggling with the loss of a parent and hope they get the courage to bear this unbearable pain.
