an incomplete puzzle,
a story far from whole,
these two pieces have went astray,
lost pieces unable finish the image,
ending up in empty darkness,
unable to ever become whole.
Would you believe there were actually three?
the unspoken third,
incomplete, and hidden under the same darkness as the others,
not because they went astray,
but created by the other's darkness,
an extra piece who evades their truth,
yet searches for it.
a puzzle piece incapable of both sides of the story,
whose tale will be hidden for eternity.
