Amandla Stanberg : Burning Heart

Your pupils are like the sun
When peeping at prime of the day-
Liveliness it strikes in turn,
As her gaze touches the summer's day.

Your smiles are like honey,
But not like honey:
Sweetening a battered heart.
Yet, it's your cheapest art.

Your voice is the communion
Of the waves and the sea,
Apt communication,
Driving attention in crazed velocity.

Your steps are like the gazelle's,
A point in time: another the next.
Comportment of aligned structures:
The most contentious infrastructure.

Extended intellectualism in sensitive fares, 
Amandla the burning heart, thoughts trailing tears.
