Live to see you unfurl, love when your lips curl

*

Live to see them part, love when your tongue darts

Live to see it flick, love when your tongue licks

*

Live to see that fire, love when your eyes show desire

Live to see you enthrall, love when your eyes show all

*

Live to see them open, love when your arms show devotion

Live to see it taunt, love when your arms show want

*

Live to see that care, love when your heart you share

Live to see you support, love when your heart you export

*

Live to see them smile, love when your heart is fertile

Live to see it unspoken, love when your heart is open

*

Live to see that smile, love when your love makes me smile
