To Harlem.

You come to me with
a story;
a poem wrapped in your heart;
a fiction in your imagination

I become an avid reader

Diving into the pages of
every conversation, every chapter

I only want you to end with comas,
I’ve been sentenced to a life of 
solitude and you seem
to erase those periods of my life.
