thing is at times i think all off us have been that lone piece. i think a few times in my life i felt like i was that piece that got added into the wrong box all together

I honestly have to say that on Triond…you don’t run into a lot of quality poetry. This is definitely an exception.

Maybe it was your word choice, or your lining style, or perhaps the overall metaphor that really made this poem count, but you certainly did well here.

Also, there were no rhymes…modern poetry seems to have adopted that. You, however, at least here, didn’t.

Kind regards,

Awesome write and I may say yes each one of us has a place where someday we will fit perfectly.

I have to agree with Fresh Writing, this piece is of exceptional quality. Well done Katie, take a bow!

Stunning piece – aptly describes how so many feel – not belonging !

I’m with Alec, it’s stunning and love the use of imagery, a perfect way to convey your message.

Well done!!!!

I loved this poem. The metaphor of the puzzle is very clever. I like to think of all of us as part of a big jigsaw puzzle. We all fit somehow–it just takes some of us longer to find our place.

Like a jigsaw we are all unique. We feel alone, but are actually joined as part of a greater whole. Cool metaphor.

We are all part of the whole, love the way you put it.

Great write. Sounds like life to me.

As an analogy for self-discovery and finding one’s place within this puzzlement called life, this really works for me. Or am I even on the right track with my interpretation? ;^D
