Hearts and Puzzle Pieces


The classic heart.
Is that of the image two human hearts,
Together.
Curious, 
Isn’t it?
The classic heart is emphasizing that when you love someone your hearts come together as one.
You have a big heart.
My heart has been beaten down to a pulp.
Will they fit?
Maybe.
You build my heart,
As they break it down.
But you build faster.
They can’t keep up.
As my heart grows,
Will I outgrow you?
Never.
As you build me, 
You get stronger.
We fit perfectly.
 
I believe that humans are puzzle pieces.
Some of us are missing.
Some find their match.
I believe that when we are made,
We are made at the same time,
But put on Earth at separate times.
 
Our bodies.
Male.
Female.
Puzzles pieces.
The empty spaces filled,
When put together.
I lack happiness, 
You fill that void.
Each flaw,
A void 
 filled by the other's strengths
 
Humans are built together, 
Hearts as one.
Then split in two.
Male and female.
Put on Earth, 
Destined to find each other.
Some find their match,
Some never find the piece they spent their life trying to find.
