Chapter 7

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
