Broken


Left arm broken
Healing slowly
I’ve just got one goal
I want my arm moving again
So I keep trying
One exercise after another
Wincing sharply
I take a deep breath
And keep going
Despite the pain
Knowing that someday
I’ll be whole again

  5. I can see how taking a deep breath in will allow one to exhale deeper into the position one is trying to achieve.
