Bits and Pieces

a poem by Anita

I’m so woefully scattered
pieces of me lie everywhere.
Scavengers prey and rejoice all day
but no one seems to care.

That small piece upon the hill
with a big dream, is dead.
I bury it under a lonely tree
and bravely move ahead.

Some of me I gave to you.
It was my very best.
I hoped that you would hold it
but even that you laid to rest.

A few that I could gather,
are bloodless bits of rotted flesh.
I feed them to the scavengers myself
for its all over now, the end.
