Chocolate Lust

I got off the busy downtown bus.
my heels clicked away without a fuss, 
heading straight to a shop called Chocolate Lust, 
a sign read, 'All You Can Eat Chocolate Until You Bust,'
I knew I was in heaven when looking about, 
chocolate was everywhere making me want to shout,
this confectionary eden made my knees quite weak,
as I walked up to the counter and took a peek,
staring before me were decadent peanut clusters,
crunchy and sweet also known as diet busters,
all my self-control was ignored at the Chocolate Lust, 
a shop for chocoholics which insists that eating candy is a must.
