True Happiness

My First Encounter

By Rika LekayPublished 4 years ago β€’ 2 min read

***

I've never received any affection,

I guess I never had any official connection.

I've always thought of myself as an outcast,

I didn't want to be harassed because of my past.

***

But what you did...

You make me feel something I never felt before.

This may seem quite stupid,

But what you did helped me explore.

***

I admit, I did feel scared,

But I felt secure around you.

You made this sound so scary, I wasn't prepared,

But it wasn't an issue.

***

I never thought I would have liked this newfound art,

And all you've done was help me, ever since I met you,

You know, you're really smart?

I feel like Juliet, are you a Montague?

***

I was lost for words, I didn't know how to respond,

But what you did to me left me in awe.

It felt like as if for a moment, we had a tight bond,

I'm speechless, and I've felt as if I dropped my jaw.

***

The way you kissed at my neck,

Oh, boy, I admit, I was shocked.

I didn't feel like a wreck,

Even if I haven't talked.

***

I felt your fingers against my skin and in my hair,

I won't lie, but I loved every part so far.

I felt like a broken pipe, in need of a repair,

And yet there you were, doing everything like an absolute star.

***

You lifted me up onto your lap,

It was unexpected to me, I didn't know what to say.

For a majority of our time together, I just wanted to take a nap,

You didn't seem to mind though, and you just took control of this situation and let me sway.

***

You asked me many questions,

Wondering if someone has done any of these actions to me before.

I always replied with a loud 'no,' I was never taken to any of these lovely sections,

And every time, you looked at me with more awe.

***

You gave me permission to do anything,

Yet you were extremely respectful about my body.

You took me under your wing,

You didn't try to force me to do anything I didn't want to do.

***

You allowed me to touch whatever I desire,

But every time I heard you scream, I would stop.

You'd always say, "I didn't tell you to stop, did I?"

All while songs and albums like Circus and ARTPOP...

Played in my head.

***

For someone who doesn't know what they're doing,

You seemed surprised at my abilities.

I let my actions do most of my speaking,

And for a moment, I felt like we had an affinity.

***

I've always been an artist,

I've told myself this countless times.

But I think I've found a new form of art to explore, if I'm honest,

I'm an artist of all trades, and I have you to thank every time.
