20 - Eyes

5 2 2
                                    

The window
Touched the ceiling and floor
Both pristine and immaculate.
Itself, the window
Half pristine and immaculate

I watched you gaze beyond the window
Blinded by the reds and oranges
While black steadily marched
And surrounded the window - just half.
I saw it
Your eyes were a burning forest.
Not pristine nor immaculate.

You turned to me, eyes meeting mine
I am blinded by the
Specks of vibrance scattered
In an endless sea of grass
Both dancing to the breeze's soft song.
I wouldn't see
The reds, and oranges, and blacks
For the windows
Are both pristine and immaculate.
