When Will Her Time Come Poem by Lizelle 'Leasel' Martins

You never cared for me
You just like the others
Use me
Abuse me
And toss me away
I can’t help but question God



For twenty six years I have cried
For twenty six years you have seen my tears
For twenty six years you haven’t....
God why can’t you hold me
God why can’t you wipe the tears from my eyes
God why don’t you hold me
God why don’t you love me



For twenty six years I have felt alone
All forlorn in this world
No one to talk to
Guess I fooled myself thinking
Thinking that you were my friend
I am not sure if you can go on
I am not sure if I can fight this fight anymore
I am tired
I need peace....
A place to rest....



When will my time come?
When will I ever be happy?
Is being unhappy my purpose on this earth....?
