Light slowly fades
from day into night
summer to autumn
winter to spring.

Existence etched
piece my piece
the missing are slotted in
along the way
to finish the puzzle.
Slowly yet surely
solves and wins.

Sleepless hours of which many pass
Yet still the most important questions
remain unanswered.

Who am I?
What purpose will I serve?
When will I know? Am I on track?
Will I be lucky I wonder
And get a sign early on from above.
Will I notice? Or will I let it slip me by?
Around in circles making the same mistakes
Until I am shown the way.

Existence etched
piece my piece
the missing are slotted in
along the way
to finish the puzzle.
Slowly yet surely
solves and wins.

My puzzle.
The puzzle of life.
