Someday You Will See Poem by Okim Otu

someday you will see
that the emptiness you felt
was in your mercy to filled
since it's the longing of your spirit
for a little attention
you could easily give

someday you will see
what you work so hard to buy
is what is starving your soul,
that it was so easy to be happy
but they sold to you that it was hard
and you bought it with your life

someday you will see
if you had savoured each moment you lived
your life would've been filled with memories,
that this life is a gift
that comes in rough wrappings
but marvellous inside

if someday you will see
all this to be true
tell someone not to wait
because someday can be today
