Puzzle Undone

Puzzle Undone

I frustratedly put together the border of the pink, purple and blue border of my puzzle

I bought with pride when I realized the colors matched bi pride

As time goes by,

I struggle to get it done

I once again bit off more than I can chew.

As I roll the puzzle back up into the mat I bought,

I was fully invested I guess,

I realized this is just like my life.

Many tries and fails,

Trying to piece things together,

Undone,

Scattered pieces,

But is that really who I am?

My eyes glaze over as I think of all of the choices I made ,

Good and bad,

How I’ve had moments where I was happy and sad,

Sometimes I didn’t want to get out of the bed,

Sometimes I was in my own head,

Sometimes I cried myself asleep,

Sometimes I made promises I couldn’t keep.

Sometimes I laughed and celebrated my highs,

Sometimes I cried and mourned my lows,

But I wouldn’t give up any of those moments that make me me.

You see, just like the puzzle,

I am not broken,

Just not yet complete.
