I was built like a puzzle

My brain is full of hundreds of pieces and I need all of them to make me

Why is it so hard to focus on the pieces?

I read one piece " math" is what it says

I don't see the problems

I see numbers and letters

I take another piece " art" is what it says

I don't see paint and sketches

I see pictures and shapes

Why can't I learn like everyone else?

Do my friends hate me?

My thoughts are like butterflies

They are beautiful but then they fly away

I want to remember.

I want to understand.

So I take my meds

I grab a piece

And connect the pieces

Of my unsolved brain
