you chose convenience over morals
lit a fire with your loathing heart
chose the embers over life
cause it was convenient for you
only for you

you chose empty rooms over cribs
picked wilted flowers up instead of children
cleaned dishes but never cleaned your soul
cause it was convenient for you
only for you

you chose blood over growth spurts
slashed out birthdays instead of tires
craved pleasure more than motherhood
cause it was convenient for you
only for you

you chose selfishness over nine months
you made your mistake someone else’s fault
and you screamed out that it was your choice
cause it was convenient for you
only for you

you chose darkness over light
patched your windows up to hide
kicked a child out instead of kicking dust
cause it was convenient for you
only for you

and i bet they still admire you
even though you despised them
you chose your satisfaction with
a devilish smile on your face
you chose your satisfaction over adoption
cause it was convenient for you
only for you

you hated war, but participated
told citizens to stop the hate crimes
but you committed one in your own life  
you conveniently forget about that
just as you conveniently forgot about
                          
                                ­your child

you could’ve chose life instead of ******
sadly you chose the latter
it was more convenient for you
there’s consequences for your actions, it’s so strange how everyone seems to forget that...conveniently
