life

life is a jigsaw
your parents are one corner, your best friend is another corner, your soulmate is another corner, and your teacher/s is/are another corner
all the pieces in the middle are less significant
but when they've all been found
your left with a picture
you can take the corners away from the picture if you want
but then it doesnt look the same
it looks incomplete
broken, if you will
and the cracks between the other pieces become more evident


without someone to bring you into the world, someone to guide you through it and teach you about it, someone to go through it with, and someone to go through it for, your picture will never be complete, and will lie on the kitchen table until it gets pulled apart by frustrated hands.
