Crumbs That You Left In My Life

For every person who walks in and out of our lives, they always leave something behind.

They leave something with you.

Whether you think of them and relate to the person or not, the mark remains.

Shoes at the door.

A skew table.

Crumbs on the kitchen counter.

Some are better than others, a good habit, a good memory.

Some are worse, like a broken window we can still see the cracks in.

A stain on the floor.

So tread carefully into a person's life.

You may leave a dent in their heart.

You may bring life to their soul.

Then there are those special people, who change your house all together.

With big or small details.

They put new frames on your windows, making you see the world differently.

They change the carpets, so that you find more comfort in your home.

They don't just leave crumbs in your life - they leave a piece of themselves with you that becomes a part of you.

And when you love that part of yourself, you are loving that person too.

And some of these things never change, they are a permanent change in your home.

As long as you love what they left, you will always love them.

As long as that change is present, you will always love the person who left crumbs in your home.
