Sadness whips through me like the flames of passion
Burning intense ~ slowly simmering at the edges
At being a convenient love
A love expressed when it is safe
Declared in the absence of covenant
In the absence of others
Who hear the same words escape from your lips
I whispered "I love you"
And you, in that old familiar way
Said "alright"
Avoiding the expression given freely in the past
And in the absence of your words
I know I am a convenient love
Sadness crawls through me making tear drops in my heart
Wetting the fertile ground of the pain once again
At being a convenient love
A love expressed when you want
Declared when you need
In your time and space
I spoke "I love you"
With the truth of my spirit
And you, in the truth of your spirit
Spoke silence and avoidance to me
And I know I am a convenient love
And so, I leave you now
Conveniently
So that my heart may heal
And you may walk on
Conveniently
To the next one
You will love
When you want
When you need
In your time and space
In convenience
