LAVENDER LOVE 

I want to turn myself inside out
To end any doubt
I want to rip my body apart
So you can see my heart

I want you to view what beats only for you
Sustaining me as the silkiness of a silky love grew
Enchantment eloquently electrified us two
As one could see the sparks of red and blue
 
It was a night to be stored in the good Lord’s file
For when a child or the elderly require a smile
Then God consults you on what kind of a grin
“the kind of joy as we watch the merry-go-round spin”

Just snapshots like that, photographs on a wall
You, who gave me your most treasured and all
You taught me with embraces of lace and lavender and what love is all about
But to prove the worthiness of my heart I will turn myself inside out

Turn inside out!!! Only you could make a simple phrase explode with emotion. Well done, bruv. You're the man. Fondly, Licia :)
