Puzzle Pieces

Many different pieces
that fit right into place
corners molded tightly
you'd think that they were traced

Yes, traced within a stencil
of everything I need
with every little detail
strung together like some beads

My puzzle fit so tightly
so grand and so complete
the world looked in amazement
so intricate and neat

I took it all for granted
This puzzle that is me
forgot that without your mucilage
a piece might get set free

And one day it did happen
my puzzle fell apart
smashed to many pieces
my shattered broken heart

I dropped down to the ground
and quickly gathered up
the pieces to my puzzle
before they got corrupt

yes, corrupted by the stares
of people passing by
with words of constant ridicule
with their cruel and jeering eye

So there I lied upon
the cold and dampened floor
trying to fit the pieces
to make me whole once more

It seemed it was in vain
when I stood upon my feet
for one piece was still missing
My puzzle incomplete

I searched and searched just for it
that magical one piece
to fit that empty cubicle
that would make it all complete

I found a few spare pieces
from a love-lorn fixers kit
but they were not quite suitable
although they almost fit

I've come to the conclusion
that only one will do
the piece that will complete my heart
is the puzzle piece called 'you'...
