My self, my soul, was cast at once.
Yours was what I was made to be
And so, my love, to sate the prophecy
I ask of you - use me.
A companion to sit beside?
Gladly, if that is what you wish.
Company for the night, or life?
Use me.
Deep desires that lie within
A meal to feed your stomach's hunger
A kiss, a touch to feed the intangible yearnings
Use me.
Entertainment for your family,
The plans for each vacation.
All of these I do with glee
Because you are using me
Help with something difficult?
I am bright
I am delighted to provide.
Use me.
I am yours forever, love, and beyond that too, it's true.
But even so I find I must ask these things of you.
Use me.
Your pleasure is what I seek; instead your discomfort may arise.
I cannot help it, like the scorpion it is my nature.
Use me.
It is not enough to continue on, coasting as it were.
The auto-pilot might be set
but I need to know you feel in control.
I need those words from you.
Your hands
your voice
your wishes
banishing uncertainty.
Use me
Use me
Use me.
