You make me feel as though I am dust
to be swept away
made of pieces of you.
Gone is my trust.
But I will always be true.
Insignificant piles of dust
only to return again.
I am the skin you shed.
I will always be a part of you
like it or not.
And when you’re dead
I will be your flesh to rot.
The bigger the parasite, the easier to kill
As small as I am
eliminate me?
You never will.
I will always be around
in you head
and in the ground.
Dust.
Is that what I am?
