Misty Johnson Poet Free verse

Someday Soon

Someday soon I'll run out, 
Of all my "give it one more tries".
Someday soon I won't believe, 
In all your pretty little lies. 

Someday soon this love for you, 
Like a flower will wilt and die.
Someday soon I'll break these chains,
And leave you here to cry.

I've cried myself to sleep it seems, 
Like a 100 thousand years. 
I could easily fill the Atlantic Ocean, 
With all my undried tears.

Did you really not see, 
The pain you were inflicting?
My soul is now completely broke, 
So your hurt I am evicting.

You made me believe without a doubt,
In all your broken dreams.
But I have yet to see you fulfill
Any of your lousy schemes.

I stood up for you and had your back, 
When everyone turned away.
But now my love is fading fast, 
Don't know what else is left to say.

I know you must've meant well, 
But now you've completely changed.
I have to go and leave you here, 
Now that my priorities rearranged.

Please don't you worry about me, 
I will make it out just fine.
You can't have what's left of me,
God said, " Nope! She's all mine!"

Someday soon My God will heal, 
Every single broken piece.
He will refill my faith in love, 
So my heart will find relief. 

I'm still praying for you daily, 
Cause that's what I'm lead to do.
Forgiveness & a Greyhound bus,
Will move me far away from you.
