Ten year sentence.
You didn’t break me.
Beatings with nightsticks.
You didn’t break me.
One stinking hour in the yard.
You didn’t break me.
The weight pile.
You didn’t break me.
Sleep deprived.
You didn’t break me.
Solitary.
You didn’t break me.
Thousands of pushups.
You didn’t break me.
Alone with nothing but my thoughts.
You didn’t break me.
Released me back into the world.
You didn’t break me.
You made me.
