He is convenient while you are complicated. He is here while you are far away from me. He can keep my mind and mouth silent while you couldn't hush the poet in me. He had the guts to ask me to be his girlfriend while you can't even tell me you like me. All you did was throw little crumbs of affection from time to time and I was too hungry to take them, until he came and gave me a complete meal. It wasn't my favorite but it kept me fed and sated.
