Replying to a comment on:
Broken (Free verse) by OnTheOtherHand
I hadn't broken into tears yet
I didn't think I ever would
I did break a few other things that night
That beer that finished the case
That lounge door that hid that ugly wallpaper
That chair that refused to move
That foot that was swollen
That sweat that November night
That sprint that told that cop that I was in trouble
That belt buckle that stabbed me as he tackled me
That cop's hard shell that made him so fierce
The night you died I failed to cry
I still haven't
That nearly broke me
Then a friend asked why I hadn't
I told him
That you broke free
