What You Came to Find


If I am not here as a permanence,
That is quite alright with me.
And if I am only a brief template
To show you how true love feels . . .
That is just as well, as long as
I am what you came to find.
 
Incidentally when you first saw me,
You were utterly entranced by my existence.
However, you were not expecting
What you fell into. Such a tight,
Warm and smooth embrace of seduction.
Not what you were seeking, but wonderful to ascertain.
 
If I am only to be a momentary muse,
Then that shall have to suffice.
For the way you satisfy  all my senses,
Makes you my most coveted maven.
I will delight in your presence knowing
I am what you sought to obtain.
 
Now – more often than not – I enjoy you
Summoning my sentiment, poking my aesthesis,
And promoting my sentience.
Always welcome to enter at will
Yearning for our every encounter.
 
If I can not secure a lieu,
Then I shall remain content still.
For just having had the chance to
Experience such a wonderful being;
And becoming – however short lived –
The treasure you came to find.
