For Onion Pt 2
I miss the old days where only you had my key
I miss the old times - running wild and free
I miss the old house and your pool and banana tree
I miss the days when it was about you and me
I miss Colima - oh that windy road
I miss when we complained about how we couldn't wait to get old
I miss how when we were together as children - it was pure gold
I miss the days when our generations weren't washed up and sold
I miss our little summer school class
I miss the days that felt like they'd last
I miss our conversations and our childhood memories growing up fast
I miss the days when our streets were cleaner - no debris or glass
I miss our walks, our talks, our childhood flirts together
I remember how we said it would be forever
I miss getting ready for our lifetime endeavors
But now I sit silently - recording our memories in this letter
Years and years later we watched as our worlds grew apart
Still you knew I'd forever have mad love for you in my heart
I knew I loved you long, long ago - immediately from our start
Forever I swore I'd love you - and love you I do still, 'til we both depart
The madness, the chaos, the full of destruction years
As a frightened and bullied child - everybody was smoke and mirrors
But I knew I could rely on you to save me - if you ever witnessed my tears
For a long time I knew not ending up with you created lots of fears
Your mom talked to me about wanting me to end up with one of her sons
But all of these low-frequency girls - treated you & your family like scum
If I had been there, I would have stopped all these hoes from being dumb
I would raise fiery brimstone from these hoes treating you like bums
Come on, my love, I know you know your value and your worth
'Cause all these dumb ex-thots are lucky I didn't see them try & hurt
I would have gladly kicked them back to the day of their ing birth
'Cause had I known what you felt for me - they'd be stepping on my turf
'Cause you were mine first - I was one of the first that you ever did love
I knew when we were little kids - your heart fit in my hand - like a glove
You were to always be my childhood sweetheart - appearing as a dove
While I watched your back forever - both sides, below, and above
Now is it too late for us again? My subconscious wants to know
Let me take you where nobody else has ever been brave enough to go
I'm not scared - I'll never be. I remembered what I promised you I'd show
Instead of getting down and slicing our sexual tension, I want it all to flow
One day our family will die and again we'll just have each other to grieve
And maybe one day when you see I'm still there - that you always believe
'Cause unless you tell me to " off" I give it my all 'til you say to leave
And whether you're far or you're near - I'm always around to plant a seed
I am your faerie god-mother or your jiminy cricket on your lost memories
I am the fire in the core of our sun and the wind whistling thru the trees
I'm the darkness in the nooks of the universe - and I'm the falling leaves
I'm the air swirling upon the beach - I'm the voices in the breeze
I'm the wild & dangerous free spiraling spirit of the witches 4rm the past
I'm the generations of witches that were upgraded from our past trash
And if I expell my power upon you - I guarantee you couldn't hardly last
You can call me whatever and whoever I am - but I'll never wear a mask
I'm pretty blunt, real, and even abrasive (you could say)
I'm not one who gets ed with - and then is expected to walk away
It is a relief to know you've loved me our whole lives - I learned yesterday
But if you choose to take it to the next level - or walk away - it'll be okay
I'm sad to know I could have had you my entire life
I'm disappointed to know if I was with you - I could've banned ur strife
I could have stopped your brother from ever handling that knife
I would've loved you unconditionally - with all my power and might
You would've been a king in the castle of a land we'd create
But now I fear our passion for one another - came just a little too late
Maybe it was meant to be - maybe it may or may not be our fate
But one thing I know for sure - is I loved all of you on our first date
I remember so much - but only when it involves you
I have albums and albums of us as kids - let me show you truth
Let me refresh your memory - and you'll remember you already knew
Let me splash colors into your world - let me banish all shades of blue
Let me walk hand in hand with you - down memory lane
Let me wind up and stimulate you - back to our childhood brain
You've always reminded me fondly of all kinds of candy and sugar cane
Let me take you way back to the day when I ever first heard your name
I want to abduct you, steal you, and kidnap you far, far away
Then stuff you in my time machine - and let us re-live our first day
I'll ship you to my Galaxy, where I hope you choose to stay
I'll entertain you the rest of my life - I'll be your puppet when we play
I'll build you a castle out of carets and carets of diamonds and gems
I'll watch every day as you brighten my cosmos - when it begins to dim
Here there's mythological creatures around us - faeries, fae, and djinn
Here there are no rules being ordered on what is and what not is a sin
The courtyard is where I'd entertain your cocktail parties of mundanes
Flying them from all over the world - in their private jet planes
So many prospects, and so many people want to see you rule as king
So many prophets, bishops, wizards, and potential virgin queens
Like a chess game - you and I set the pieces for the world to play
It's up to us whether on this strange planet we will choose to stay
I don't know what I'd do or how I'd react - if I awake to you every day
'Cause the world isn't one way or the other - there's plenty of shady gray
