a stranger,
stumbling into your life
carrying a missing piece of your puzzle.
one step closer,
in completing the picture hidden within.

puzzle

effort
without the effort,
I could never prove you wrong.
wanting to give you the best of me
and not someone else.
-
unfinished
acting as if
we aren’t the protagonist
of our own story.
expecting others to write
our happiness into reality.
our reluctance to flip the page
of an unfinished chapter
turning us into the antagonist.
—
new page,
letting go to see what grows
unbound by past shortcomings
wondering if you can do the same.
-
forgiveness
seeking forgiveness
in the name of reform.
meanwhile,
caging those who hurt us
strained by the chain of resentment.
unwilling to give
what we want in return.
—
in order to be forgiven
you must be willing to forgive,
otherwise it will never be more.

leech
often in disguise, posing as a friend.
in similar clothes asking all the right questions
giving you a certain comfort,
as if they cared.
selfish intents hidden by a façade,
while all along clinging to the best parts of you
slowly spreading their malice.
causing you to bleed,
long after they are removed.
