eyes of a window

She was touching a long part of her elbow
that touched the ground
like the rocks before the mud
that changed colors as the rain
hit the soft tinges of its face

She wrote on her heart
for life's pleasantries could not be of bother

There's a small window we all go to
where our thoughts become so isolated
that the trees begin to waver with their long, tusk branches

For the heart is our greatest pain
not tears of the skin,
the sun, or the dreaded floor

A heart is where the mind can roam
where a small window can touch
a persons face in such an organic way
that pictures are left as the only witness
to the faceless window and a lovers silence.

I'm beginning to sound redundant in my replies; but this is simply amazing.
