Life like a puzzle
A poem explaining life if every person is a piece in your puzzle
By Liliana KrpanPublished 3 months ago • 1 min read

Life as a puzzle
A newborn, you
Zero pieces
One piece, mom
Two pieces, dad
Twelve years old
School, friends, family, siblings
Twenty-four pieces
Eighteen years old
High school, friends, family, siblings
Sixteen pieces
Some pieces are lost forever
Some pieces can be found again
Thirty years old
Job, friends, family, siblings, kids, wife
Forty-five pieces
Fifty-five years old
Job, friends, family, siblings, kids, grandkids, wife
Sixty pieces
Mom and dad finished their puzzle
Fifty-eight pieces
Eighty years old
You leave your puzzle
Forgotten, unfinished, lost, dead
