I’ve tried to fit in the spot
The hole where the puzzle is missing a piece
To cross my arms and twist my legs, hoping to create the shape
The shape that seems to fit effortlessly
The shape that they crave
The shape that they need me to be
The shape into which I cannot bend
Cannot shift
Cannot be
Leaving them to continue wishing that the last piece was not missing
