Not Part of the Puzzle

I am a misplaced puzzle piece

As I look at my surroundings, I don't know where I belong

These people around me are not my people

Even how hard I try, I can't find a place where I fit in

There's just something missing

I feel that people around me don't know who I truly am

I try my best to fit in

I mold myself to fit in

I don't fully reveal who I am, afraid that they would not accept me

I'm not even sure what they truly think of me

I try my best to fit in

But it's draining me out

Triggers everywhere making me feel that I don't belong

Why is it so hard to fit in?

Then realized

I am not supposed to be here

They are not my people

As I looked around me,

I found them

People who I don't need to try so hard to put a facade 

I can be myself

I don't need to try so hard

This I understood

I was a misplaced puzzle piece

But not anymore
