Spirit

When I think of my feet and legs 
I remember them tired from the long walk home
When I think of stomach and chest 
I think of them tight with anxiety 
When I think of my arms 
I remember wearing long sleeves even in the summer
To cover the bruises 
When I think of my hands
I remember you crushing my fingers with yours
When I think of my face 
I think of my eyes sad and tired . 

But when I think of my head 
I have to ignore  
The clouds 
And remember 
Though you broke many things 
You did not break my spirit
