Puzzle Pieces

Some come, some go.
Some fit, most don't.

Lay them aside,

Look for others.

There's not enough room;

You can't befriend everyone.

But those that stick around,
Hold onto tight.

Pick the ones that fit.

Don't try to fit the ones you pick.

An outstretched hand

Could be friend or foe.

Be careful who you trust.

Wolves look like sheep.

Fragile

Expectations break
Like shattered glass on the ground;
At my feet they lie.

Hopes and dreams crumble,
My childhood turns to rubble.
I dig for remnants.

Judgments fall harshly;
Did you even take the time
To seek out the truth?

My trust is fragile;
Break it now and it is gone,
Never to return.

Help me heal these wounds.
My voice pierces the darkness;
Can you hear me now?

Feel the pain I feel.
In desperation I cry
To know and be known.
