Puzzles By: Hannah Masich

Puzzles

Our lives are one big puzzle,

But we don’t know how many pieces we’ve got.

There are people that fit in quite nicely,

And some who try but do not.

We are constantly adding more pieces,

All the memories of things we’ve been through.

We add laughter and tears and adventure,

And the lessons we’ve learnt to be true.

Everyone has their own puzzle,

There will be ones you do not fit.

Don’t ever make your piece smaller

So you can fit there for a little bit.

If you keep cutting off all your edges,

One day you won’t recognize who you are,

And you’ll forget the person you once were.

Before the world told you who you should be,

Make the most of each piece in your puzzle,

It’ll be a grand masterpiece when it’s done,

So you won’t have to look back when it’s over,

And realize you’ve left out the sun.
