The horrific horror of the Misfit Puzzle Piece

I am the misfit puzzle piece, and I can't seem to find my puzzle. I looked everywhere! I thought I'll complete the head of a serpent, but the puzzle was more complex than I thought. I tried to fit into a detailed puzzle of a donkey, but I refused to be associated with that depiction. I do not want to give up yet because I know my puzzle is out there somewhere. There has been countless, restless nights where I'm pondering on why don't I fit in with anything . Before I get pessimistic, which I always do, I find the happiness in my sadness, or the joy in my pain. I reason with the fact that all things happen for a reason and sooner or later, I'll see the bigger picture . Maybe it's just not my season to join those puzzles, or I was never meant to join them to begin with. The more and more I try to fit in where I don't belong is causing less time for me to actually discover the puzzle where I do belong . A mere distraction .
