This Puzzle Life

Life is a puzzle
Where pieces don't always fit
No box to keep order
With pictures on it
With some pieces missing
As life is unkept
But that you won't find
Till the bitter end
We continue to try
And fit the pieces right
Frayed at the edges
More loose than tight 
Working it out
As hard as we might
Building this puzzle
That we call life
