Candied California
I must be insane
You taste so sweet, I can’t resist
But I’m not sure its worth the pain
I keep shoveling with my chips
God its burns my ******* mouth
But still I take another dip
I mixed the pepper with cream cheese
after chopping in the blender
And now I eat it as I please
The peppers set my mouth on fire
The dairy doesn’t really help
it kind of ***** that I’m a crier
I should avoid wiping my eyes
Don’t want to spread the burn
but I subscribe to candied lies
Oh my god. This spice is hell
Still I’m eating candy California
The heat is making my tongue swell
Tied and gagged, I just cry
my throat hurts, everything burns
I just might die
Is this the first time I've done an extended metaphor without directly saying what's being represented????/
