Puzzle

I’ve been working on a puzzle

It has no box

It has no picture

Made only of thoughts

I’ve been working on a puzzle

Pieces and patterns

Moving them around

Seeking what matters

I’ve been working on a puzzle

It’s consumed my mind

Kept me up at night

But I’ve been blind

I’ve been working on a puzzle

With the wrong eyes

So much so

The picture couldn’t materialize

I’ve been working on a puzzle

Day by day

Piece by piece

Not ready to walk away

I’ve been working on a puzzle

That’s drove me crazy

But somehow I see

The answers lately

I’ve been working on a puzzle

That’s quite the kicker

And I think maybe…

I love the picture.
