my own worst nightmare

I am a reminder 
Of the pain I've caused myself. 
Every breath a threat;
Perhaps I will do it again. 

When I move my arms 
I remember the slaps they have given. 
The shuffle of my feet 
Cannot move me past where they've stumbled. 

My life is a testament 
To my tactlessly selfish existence, 
I think only of me again 
When I wonder how to fix everything my clumsiness broke.
