The missing Piece
This isn’t a full blog post. Just a secret being revealed for my readers. IYKYK.
Out of Chaos, Poem #11, The Duality of Selves:
You, me, and our conflicting selves
Locked in a room, confused
Tasked with the pleasure of piecing together
A puzzle
We sit there, bemused
This puzzle of innumerable pieces
Multifarious shapes out of place
Strewn on the ground all around us
Bewildered, we sit, face to face
Trying to work out the image
But our selves do not see it the same
Our unmatched perspective perplexes us
Befuddled, we sit there, in vain
Given a task so simple to most
Becomes a battle of both perceptions
Two selves, unaligned, search the pieces
Baffled, by our own apprehensions
This fragmented image
Undeveloped
Scattered in every direction
One by one, we pick up each piece
And arrange them section by section
Casting aside our own inputs
Putting each piece into place
The image comes slowly together
Now in sync, here we sit, interlaced
Building and building and building
But will eternally remain incomplete
This puzzle before us
Forever unfinished
Two selves
And one missing piece.
After years of debate, I can confirm.
The missing piece is love.
