Someday You Will Understand Poem by Kelly Iyogun

Someday you will understand
why I had to go
even though it hurt us both.
Through tears you wished i stayed
but your very fears confirmed
the moment i strayed.
On me the blame you place,
If only you paused to think your ways.

Someday you will understand
the reason i called you friend,
though it seems our journey comes to an end
but the memories yet lingers.
Laughter shared,
Jokes said echoes the time stream
Hopeful, one day the moment tinkers
and old friend, it would be to us just a passing dream.

Someday you will understand
why tears kisses my cheek
with a forced smile anchored between my lips
Your face in the clouds at night i see
My heart turbulent like waves upon sea.
While i fight to stay afloat
I loathe the loneliness the night brings
Missing you hurts
How else does one sing it

Someday you will understand
How fate takes a man
far from where his heart chooses to lay.
Maybe if the heart knew what it desires
Dear old fate wouldn't have lit the fire
now heavy a load I've come to bear.
If to go by what i hear,
'Life is like a forked road,
leading to same stubborn fate'
Avoiding this moment is thus inevitable.
