More Than Just An Onion

Layers of an onion I gave to you Like a circle, unbroken Like the brightness of the moon The warmth of the sun I am your constant At the heart of the onion Is my heart - I give to you More than an onion (a circle) Wrapped in thin brown paper I am potent with love Fierce in my devotion A kiss from an onion (My lips to your lips) stained With my faithfulness, My commitment, You possess me I am sweetly poisoned by you There is no cure - I don't need one You are my constant
