Give me the right hook
And uppercut to boot
Beat me break me
I'll heal in time
But years from now
When your grown
You'll remember my words
That hurt you so
Enough to cause
My temporary pain
So beat me break me
I'll heal you wont
Those scars will stay

*"I would rather fight with my hands than my tongue (First Lady Dolley Madison)."
* free verse, capitalized every sentence, run-on sentence structure
* Grammatical error: "wont" should be "won't"
* In my opinion, this could have been stronger, it has a lot of potential; needed more drive and verbal righteousness.
