the long curve of your supple frame bends like a reed in the summer breezes your iridescent amber eyes like saucers flecked with dark speckles of golden brown. the ache i feel as i watch you move rushes over my spine in slow seizures this moment in time blooming like the flowers woven in the wild braids of your hair. — Na’vi – 12/29/09 – 29
