The Syrian actress wroteShukran MurtajaA new long letter to her late motherAida Abu Shamatwho recently died of a heart attack.
Murtaja published a picture that she gathered with her mother and attached it to a comment: “For whom did you leave me, my mother, who told you that I grew up, who told you to cut our umbilical cord like this while heedless, who told you that I wanted to wean, who told you to leave like this and not turn around while I am still, hanging?” With the edge of your dress from the knots I walked, and I fell into the well, and the well has water in it, and I am thirsty.”
And she added: “My mother, what a pain this pain is. Is it like the pain of childbirth when they took me away from you? I think that the moment you left me, I think that the moment you left thousands of years, and the whiteness chose my braids to live, and the black presents all the colors, so it is the master of the situation now.
And she concluded her message by saying: “My sadness is as much as your age, my mother, and as much as the greenness of your eyes. The mother, in the eyes of her children, does not grow old, my master, she remains the same, and we remain in her presence young. My mother, my daughter for years and her daughter for decades. I feel the sadness and pain that extends like a flock of pigeons from Baghdad to China.”
