The Missing Peace (Free verse) by nothingtoanyone
I’m a puzzle piece that has been placed in the wrong box. A piece that will not put together the picture on the cover, but will assemble the picture that should be there. A piece that doesn’t belong to the box in which it has been placed. A piece that everyone longs to find but never will, without faith in mass numbers. The wrong piece in this box, but the right piece to the right puzzle. The puzzle that won’t exist with the way things are going now. Heads must be turned and eyes must be opened wider in order for the picture to change. So do the searching people a favor and take that misplaced piece and place it in the hands of the tired pursuer. Give them a break and show them the piece of peace.

Up the ladder: when i met sky alone
Down the ladder: Chronic Depression

At first I thought this was one of those: "What am I?" poems... and I hate those.

This reminds me more of an outline or some notes for a poem. Should be distilled quite a bit.

I like the beginning and the idea behind this, you go off into unfortunately, into boring redundance. the last line's a stinker, corny & preachy.
