You broke me.
It started as a hairline fracture
I could handle it even without a cast
But then
I fell down again
The fracture spread
You broke me.
I fashioned myself a splint
But then
I took a tumble down the concrete stairs
Bones shattered
I heard things crack
You broke me
I came back with crutches and a cast
But then
You chased me
I ran back up those stairs and this time reached the door
I made it to the edge of the roof
And then
I jumped
Bones snapped in half
My legs
My arms
My neck
My stilled heart
You broke me.
