Glass and Steel

Glass and Steel

A Poem by Marlena

You remind me of light
and pretty things
fragile things
that look strong
you're like glass and wind
after a while words and thoughts
all accumulate and
it gets so hard to see inside
and you're unseen
but I feel you there
a gentle pressure
that in a moment
can knock me off my feet.
You remind me of darkness
and sad things
breaking and healing things
that not only look strong
but are.
you're like steel and cold nightmares
smooth and graceful
and dangerous
A moment alone with you
can be beautiful and wordless
and in another second turn
so violently scary,
a run from things strange.
You remind me of....
Glass and wind
and steel and cold nightmares
and the things that I love the most.
Because you are.

Ohh what a beauty ,the best in life are those so shaky and fragile ,yet will stay strong
you are the light and all pretty things fragile and strong..
your words gather like a storm,you frighten me to look inside
cant see you ,just feel you there..your presence is so powerful
one more move from you and you could take my mind
take me off my feet..remind me of all the darkness and the sad things
how strong you are though so miserable you sound and feel
steel cold nightmares,yet feels so graceful and sweet
one moment with you would be so beautiful ,yet so scary
how i loved those words..so dreamy so beautiful ..so realistic
lovely write..

I remeber years ago ruminating on some Elton John Lyrics, "eyes that burnlike ice on fire."
I wisah I had said that!
I clicked on this because I liked "glass and wind"
Glad I did
This is a good take on love/hate relationships.
