Imperfection of Love's Perfection

Imperfection of Love's Perfection

A Poem by Monique Jackson
"

We're over BUT the Love isn't Over...

"
My heart,
The one thing I didn't want to open up,
Yet you continued to be the strength beneath my pain.

My tears,
Though internal you saw them fall and dried them all,
Through your words, with your love, I felt peace again.

My weakness,
Those things hidden within my mind,
You took your time to turn those gray clouds into rays of sunshine.

My life,
Filled with so many painful memories,
But you taught me that they don't determine my destiny.

I feel so numb,
Like that hole can't be refilled,
So, I continue to search for that place to be healed.

I miss it so much,
That feeling of wholeness,
That spiritual connection between us.

I can't even pretend,
That I don't want the things we shared in the past,
The memories in my heart will always and forever last.

My love,
The depths I felt for you,
I don't think you could imagine how much I had for you!

It never really left,
Even when I tried to stop what I felt,
Till this day the thought of what we had makes my heart melt.

I cry sometimes,
Not because of sadness or anything of the sort,
Just for the fact that you showed and taught me so much.

Forever grateful,
Forever changed,
The perfect imperfection of loving through the pain!

Perfect I never was,
Perfect I will never be,
No matter who I was you accepted me for me.

The definition of love,
The only way it can be defined,
Is through all the things that connected you and I.
