Best Steel Poems

Cold Hard Steel
My mouth wide open, gasping for breath, splashing, gurgling
Hopelessly going nowhere, treading, losing the fight
I can’t hear the clanking or yelling anymore, today is the day I have succumbed to his cruelness, numb, no thoughts, no feelings just sinking, floating, slowly being dragged...

A heart outlined in steel.
Designed just so i'll never feel.
It's way too late to get off this ride. 
There's no one in which I can confide.
Falling down.
The screams like thunder.
Into lost dreams and lies I plunder....

O Raintree of Steel
Your glass tower mirrors
Dry grass on bare hills
Do your roots reach into earth
To bring water for my thirst?...

A weak worm hatched
From an egg that is fragile
Trying to survive the world
Full of predators and guile

Romanticsm has been just an instrument
To be confined in the ego
And a faint serfage
On behalf of love upon herself

So she claims herself
No longer merely a companion
Metamorphosed as time goes...

Her face is invaded by networked wrinkles
For she gave to the world all her valued best,
Her input to the current world has tired her
And she looks up to the grave for final rest.

She chose for herself a deprived lifestyle
So as to give to the young...

Beyond the glass
To the silvery foil—
All is not given back
In the way of light—
The mirror
Somewhat of a thief,
Coveting a bit of warmth
For itself--
The secret flaw
In reflected image…

I feel for focus,
Refracted to a searing point—
Not of vulcanized sand
But will,
Determined to cut into
And draw blood
From the often

What wondrous things await
As long as we are still alive
Even a day dawning with gloom
Can yield a tremendous surprise

Like hearing from an old friend
When you thought you’d been forgotten
Can change the texture of your day
To the touch of soft spun cotton

I keep this notion forefront
Especially...

Steel upon endings

Taken by fate, to a subway of feelings
Caverns which reap what I call
Beacons of hope at the end often stealing
Fixtures in spite of it all

Counting the tracks of a firm destination
Purchasing tickets to share
Fear stands my heart of my own hesitation
Wondering if you...

STEEL AND SILK

My love like steel and silk
      cuts through you 
            splutters your blood
              ...

Steady and stealth are
NASA’s sleek steel ships,
their bright brazen tail lights
trail baby blue skies 
as they climb cliffs of rugged cloud banks

(STEEL) MAGNOLIA
 Breathtaking,
 Delicate beauty
 Of Creamy Perfection
 With Roots Running Deep
 In Southern Soil,
 A history almost
 As old as time,
 And endurance
 As tough as
 Steel;
 She defies description
 And explanation
 But...
 Beauty is its own excuse

I am not strong, Nay, I am fragile
I am shining  amongst the sunlight 
And rolling in the strongest  Gale

Don't wonder who I am, alas, 
On the beach, I am  standing as such
Facing the rises and sets of the sun
And going  up...

Soft Chains – Cold Steel

cold steel and darkened hold
bound for destinys untold
asea in darkened misery
a towering flame – laid cold.

unbound in aftermath of strife
adrift in memories of life
fading in the pain of emptiness
the faces of a child, a wife.

dreams, forbidden wants and need
reduced to wooden...
