I take the puzzle pieces out of the box one by one. Together we have built such an emense puzzle. Piece by piece we interlocked these pieces. Each one has a meaning, and has its own individual memory. One by one I place the puzzle together. This piece for instance is my favorite one.... day that I first met you.....This one is for our first conversation.... this one stands for the grassy shores of Smith's Pond....it will be missed. I place it its place on our board. This piece was a funny one....hehe....the hampster joke...you didn't talk to me for a couple of hours after that...good times. This piece stands for all the drives we went on........you always liked to go for drives. This one is a good one.....the bon fire. I place all these next to the others on our board. This piece stands for all the nights just staying home, and watching movies.....I will miss them.....These two stand for all the times that we laughed,and wrestled with each other.......heh heh heh Pilbert....never forget him. Ah and this piece. It stands for all of our intimate times....magical. This piece stands for your smile....always beautiful...I always liked the way you could make the corners of your mouth do that...lol. These three pieces stand for all of our fights....never a regret in any of them, and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. This one stands for all the times that you were there for me.....I appreciate it like you will never know....This little one is the masking tape rose....And this one.....all the cards you gave me.....this one is for candles......Another one of my favorites....the look on your face when our house was finished....I lay all these pieces carefully on our board, as to make sure that none of them are to get damaged. This one is for all of my mistakes, and this one is for yours. There are so many that the amount is overwhelming......all of our kisses, hugs.....smiles. We can't forget the dark ones. This one is for the distance I feel within you.....broke my heart. This one is for you ever doubting me.....I cried for so long........This one is for where we stand right now... I put all the pieces where they belong and I stand up.... I look over the vast creation that we have built.....The colors are bright, and beautiful. I pick up the box, and I see there is one last piece left in it. One last space to fill....Every good story must always have an ending. My eyes swell up to know that it is actually going to happen. I hesitate to place it.......Its weight is overwhelming.....I can't lift it....although I must.....It will never be the same. The magic has left us forever....I place the piece on our board to complete our story....soon it will just slide into the strong suction of my past, and yours....we will just be a memory...a flicker of light in something that is so big....remember me for who I am...I will always remember you....I take my hands, and I slam all the pieces all over the place...pieces falling all over the floor......scattered, and incomplete.......I leave the room, and never return......................

I like the idea of being a puzzle to. It's like were all just a puzzle in some way or other. just looking for ways to put our life together with losing any pieces. I loved the poem.
