How's this for a mental image?

This is what my book series I'm writing is based upon. Keep in mind that the character in this is only about 10 years old.

I hit the ground on my hands and knees from the pain. It was spreading now throughout my entire body, although still concentrated on my mid-back area. I dug my fingers into the ground, gasping for air. Then I felt the taste of blood enter my mouth, and soon after saw it dripping to the ground. I still couldn't breathe, the pain wouldn't let me. Never before had I ever experienced anything like this.
Then the pain increased tenfolds more on my back and I felt as though it were being ripped apart...and then...to my horror, it did. Though I couldn't see them, I could feel bones ripping from my back and tossing blood high into the air. I knew this because I felt the droplets rain back down on me and trickle down my back. I closed my eyes, unable to keep watching the blood find it's way onto the ground. All this time I could feel the bones that had split from my back moving, growing outward.
I collapsed onto the ground and into my own blood then, unable to bear the pain any longer. The agony was wroughting my head, and if felt like someone was squeezing my skull between their hands.
Then, in a single instant, the pain ended and I felt a cruel gust of wind against my raw back. I lay there a moment longer, trying to catch my breathe, and then I stood.
I winced again, feeling a slight twinge of pain at my lower back as I stood and I moved my arm back to rub it only for it to meet with something else. It did not feel fleshy, rather it felt softer and more cushioney. Something had formed around the bone that had sprang out of my back, and I tried stretching. Then they came in front of me and I saw exactly what it was that had given me so much pain.
They were wings...not birdlike, but rather more angelic, and they were black as the night sky...
