I Loved Our Imperfect Life

I smile thinking of our once crazy life that we had created from the ground up. Now I'm standing beyond the fence where the house we once lived, laughed and loved stands. Pictures still in the frame of moments we shared collecting dust. Little love notes left as they lay. Memories still linger of a past we once held with such care. I always knew the grass was greener on the other side of the fence and to be honest I never wanted greener grass. These imperfections were the perfect place for me. Your words were all I needed to believe. Your kisses brought butterflies to me. Your hugs brought life to me. You were all that my life required... yet here I stand behind the gate looking one last time at a past that I used to scream, "LOVE" from daily... yet now all that has faded and as I walk on to new pastures I can leave knowing that even though this has ended I am ok with it. I can walk away with good memories as my keep sake...
