Puzzled
She need not find
herself
for she was born
with all the pieces
pieces
put together in the dark
bargained into place
by faith
fooling love
and sharp reprieves
bits of sky
squashed to ground
a picture not quite finished
for she can change it
she has spent long days
and longer nights
enslaved by wishing
and finally
wishes have stepped aside
she has stepped forward.

Author Bio: Published poetess at the age of 13, I took some time off to learn about life, boys, heartbreak and how to do my taxes. Now I am a writer, currently calling Cape Town home and calling out to the words each day to let me wrangle them into the shape of a poem.
