Dignity

Shreds of Dignity, like confetti strewn,

Once whole, but now torn


In the silence echoes remain

Of what was once only a grain


As I look at the scattered bits 


I long to be whole again

Overcoming every pain

No matter how deep they are

Heal every scar


As I gather the scattered bits


each mocking, not valuing and taunt 

returns as powerful and continues to haunt

once more and equally hard

hurt by every shard


As I hold the scattered bits 


I will need my resilience

And a lot of patience 

To hold the fragile parts

So they don’t fall apart
