A Jigsaw in Love

A Jigsaw in Love

I am a jigsaw.
A puzzle,
Waiting to be solved.

My pieces are mixed up
Because of how I feel about you.
I spill out of my box.

Could somebody please
Pick up my pieces?

People are frustrated with me as
They try to solve
My problem.

They do not know
Where to find you.
They know I need you.

For without you
I am incomplete;
I can never be whole.

You are my missing piece.
We belong together.

We are destined for each other.
As soon as we are joined
People see me as I am.

But we can not be.

You are taken away from me
And I am broken into pieces,
Separated by greater forces.
I get hidden in the dark.

But I know fate will bring us
Back together again someday,

For I am just another...
Jigsaw in the cupboard.
