First attempt poem.

I SCREAM

He looks

I YELL

He whispers

I CRY

He smiles

HIS TEARS ARE DRY

 

I POUND

He taps

I GRIMACE

He grins

I PULL

He pushes 

ME AWAY

 

I fall

HE KICKS

I curl

HE TOWERS

I bruise

HE LICKS

HIS OWN WOUNDS

 

I crawl

He dances

I'm sorry

He's right

I'm weak

He's strong

I'm bruised

He's clean
