I am unsure if I should use break or broke in the following sentence. I know that after 'could', the next verb must be in base form, therefore 'hear'.
I could hear my heart break into many pieces.
Somehow, 'break' sounds better than broke. If 'break' is correct, why is it correct since it's a past action?
Thank you. :-D
