I Have Chocolate

To say 
I have chocolate 
can say 
so many things 
from you were right
to I was wrong 
to I haven’t seen you in so long
it can soften what stings
I am sorry 
to don’t you worry
or cue our favourite song
from I’ve had enough 
to I call your bluff
to I like it better when we get along 
from you’re invited 
to they’re near sighted
let’s eat that heartache gone
