Steel and Rock

Abstract poem about a troubled couple.

You are all just
Flesh and steel
Fists strike bars
Palms meet cars
I am all just
Flesh and rock
Eyes shed tears
Heart shuns fears
And you stiffen
From the bottom up
And stand so
Straight and tall
And I curl curl curl
To tiny rock
(My mind creates the pall)

Okay. Reality now.
You are all just
Strength and tall
I am all just
Dainty small
But we can both
Yell, scream, and cry
With thunder from
Past pained goodbyes
Brown eyes look to
Brown eyes look to
Shut eyes look to
Insides
(With lights off
We are both one size)
Struggle struggle struggle
We fight to be
In love
But neither fail
(But neither win)
The realization's setting in.
