Poetry- Inconvenient

Inconvenient emotions

Bringing others down

Inconvenient feelings

Hide them.

Hide them now.

Inconvenient time..

Let’s talk later.

Inconvenient time to

Ask a favor.

For every aging

Parent

Has an aging child.

Who puts them off

“Later”.. “In a while”..

Work is priority

Car, mortgage, kids,

Friends, vacations..

Time is missed.

Inconvenient mother

Inconvenient father

Waiting in understanding

For time to matter.

Facebook is no connection

Nothing will replace

Time together, laughter shared

When sitting face to face.

Inconvenient,

Taken for granted,

Year after year.

Inconvenience will be forgotten

When they’re no longer here.

Take the time now.

Let them know you care.

Remember inconvenient

Will be your pain

When they’re no longer there.

I'm someone who has always had a deep passion for literature and writing. From a young age, I've been captivated by the power of words and the way they can transport us to different worlds, open our minds to new ideas, and connect us with people and experiences that are distant from our own. Whether it's immersing myself in a classic novel, jotting down my thoughts in a journal, or crafting my own creative stories, writing and literature have always been an essential part of my life. I'm excited to continue exploring this rich and rewarding field, and to share my thoughts and insights with others who share my love for all things literary.
