Nkem

He comes to me,

a broken man

and i tell him to sit still

so i can pick the sadness away

from his soft skin.

when he is near

when he touches me

when my name spills

out of his lips

when he is a sinner

when he is holy

when he is broken

when he is soft

this is how his love like music

makes my soul dance.

For I have witnessed in my mother

i witnessed in my father

how to love between cities

and cry when weak

i witnessed in my mother

i witnessed in my father

how to carry yourself home

no matter how far away we go
