to pieces
Into scattered fragments
To pieces describes something broken, separated, or destroyed into fragments.
Objects fall to pieces, get torn to pieces, or are smashed to pieces.
Figuratively, a person who goes to pieces loses emotional composure completely.
To love someone to pieces is to love them intensely—as if the feeling might break you apart.
