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.
