This poem was written for the Sonnets of Steel competition in Moonfair 2010. It is writen more as though Hannah does love Jacob, but doesn't quite realise and isn't paying him alot of attention at the moment.
Like Steel
You are like steel, my Hannah With all its strength and beauty
Your skin is smooth as steel Coolly silky to touch Sleek and unblemished
Your smile is bright as steel Flashing from a serious face Reflecting inner sunshine
Your eyes are grey as steel Flat, blank, revealing nothing Then glimmering with life
Your mind is sharp as steel Slicing through the veiling lies To find the truth beyond
Your shields are strong as steel Encircling mind and heart Yet you have let me in
Strong as steel are the bonds That bind my heart to yours Made stronger still by love
You are like steel, my Hannah And our love will never end
