Incomplete

You've been left behind, a missing piece to a puzzle you will never find. That missing piece longing for the right location, Applying so much effort to gain the wrong association, the  wrong affiliation. Placing yourself in the wrong situation can come from a simple miscommunication, misinterpretation or even being presented with misinformation. Not realizing we're not all in this together , but we're all in this alone. You are a missing piece , why add too another when you could start your own.

You had to start burning old bridges to make progress. You were young and dumb not realizing that it was part of the process. Once you began to realize some of the processes of progress, you acknowledged more wins over losses. 

You gotta take a loss to be a boss. First become the boss of yourself. Build more than personal belongings, more than somethings you can brag about owning. Build something potentially limitless that can't be confined by some type zoning.

First become the boss of yourself. Something you must do for yourself. Build character, be bold gain control of mind , heart and soul.  Yes build wealth .............. of knowledge, of spirit, knowledge heaven & hell and anything near it. Most important of all know self and know it well, listen,  listen listen........ and hear it.

Some will forever feel incomplete. Because they will always seek something physical,  Something solid, something concrete. Not saying this makes them ............

Welcome to PoetrySoup. If I can make a suggestion? A Dramatic Monologue is a sort of speech, and you are getting there. You switch from "you" to "I" in your second stanza. That undermines the purpose of your narrative. Keep the speech thing in mind. As if you are addressing an audience. Good luck :)
