Puzzle pieces

People are not like
Pictures they were never
meant to be painted
Into perfection .
For what i am
what we are
Are pieces to
an unfinished
puzzle .
and we yearn to
find the final
face that puts all
our pieces into place.
The one hand
you can hold
and the only one who
will understand.

Thanks for sharing Hayden!

Thanks for sharing Hayden! Love the last few lines quite a bit:

we yearn to
find the final
face that puts all
our pieces into place.
The one hand
you can hold
and the only one who
will understand.

Well done!

Cheers

I do believe...

this is one of your best!
The only thing I would change is the
line that says: "For we yearn..." I would use: And we yearn. ~ Geez.

Thank you

It’s been hard to write because for months I’ve been having chronic nerve pain on the whole right side of my head because of the brain surgeries .
