I am Your Fantasy

I am your fantasy,

your escape from reality.

You only know part of me,

my worst you will never see.

One night a week

you embark on a trip of shame

to experience ecstasy

in a haven away from tedious fidelity.

Those few precious moments you live in the present,

a long way from homely mundanity

feeling the thrill of slow surrender,

drowning in the sea of love infinity.

Imagining a new life with the lover you hardly know,

except every inch of her body,

far away from judgement and false morality,

in a parallel universe, just you and me.

Discarding all you once loved happily

in exchange for sexual alchemy.

Hoping for the flame to burn forever,

determined to fall from grace causing calamity.

But stop. I am reminding you now, right here

that I am just your muse and fantasy.

Your temporary escape from reality.

I will never let you see the worst of me.

For one day the tides will turn, change on its way,

nothing ever stays the same,

turning fantasy into reality and a new mundanity

will be the end of you and me.
