The Puzzle

The puzzle –

When we started working on it, I just
knew that it would turn out to be a
masterpiece.

We worked on it for such a long time

One piece of the puzzle got lost

We gave up the search and somewhere
Along the line, we never got around to
Finishing it.

The puzzle piece is still missing. Do
You think we’ll ever find it so we can
Continue working on it, or just abandon
the entire thing?

If we do find it and place it with the
Others, will it be so faded we won’t
Recognize the picture anymore?

Do you think that the picture will show
Deterioration from the lack of love and care
Over time?

If you want to, we can always work on
Another puzzle. Or have you found it and have
been secretly holding on to the puzzle piece
because at this point, you don’t want it completed.

No matter what, I still love and care and
Want completeness

I hope you feel the same way –

After all, It’s a portrait of us.
