You'd do right to think of it as your Romantic poem!
I was thinking many of the Odes of Anacreon from Moore definitely fit your poem, and it's a rather short collection so I'd recommend an easy reading of it.
Then there's some other poems like 'To Julia', the one that starts with 'Though Fate, my girl, may bid us part' or another by the same title which starts with 'Oh! If your tears are giv'n to care!'. There's countless others which I myself an unfamiliar with as I'm actually reading my oxford edition of his poetical works right now. But I'll be sure to send others if I find them!
Your theme reminded me of his, but, like I said, he has a much more ballad like jolliness to his poems, and sometimes, is even satirical. Although you both share eroticism.
