Image result for images of women steel blue eyes

Steel – striking steel Her eyes demure With a stare Stern – congruous Strongly infiltrated Harshly deviated Not from heartache But from necessity Crazy tears flow Not from the pain That crosses paths With the hard creases But from the nature Of steely eyes Crashing into oblivion Where she falters I hone into one Of those fierce eyes To stare at the universe And its infinity Cold – drowned below Oblivion crushes The steel eyes That she strikes Closed – nothing invoked More than the dissimilar Beyond the chronicles Of lies – mystic realms The moon casts no shadow Where its sliver Of a crescent display Dominating – steely position Not striking as the eyes Of a steel sword Pierces… My heart crushed Underneath the pressure Of seeing her eyes Steel – silver striking Steely eyes staring… Russell Sivey
