Chocolate Obsession

Oh chocolate my sweet My daily dose of joy how sweet it is Deliciously it melts at first lick Liquefying its flood of sweetness to pleasure So silkily smooth it's a mind blown I love it so much, it, I can not live without Oh chocolate I must have it daily Skipping it or rather running out of it, is a crime to my mood and my head It's my daily dose of joy I need its sweet magic It arouses my mood high on happiness, and sets me headache free I crave it night and day like no others Oh chocolate my sweet My one desire I love it so My daily dose of joy I just can't get enough of its divine deliciousness It rules my world People complain I eat it too much I, smile and moan to leave me be It's an obsession I'm NOT guilty about Smile Akkina R Downing 7-24-17

haha, love this one Akkina and it reminds me of my wife and her obsession with the same. We all love something more than others would like, but we live in our bodies... and they have no place but their own. Wonderful poem

Yep, most of us love chocolate, Akkina. this is a cute portrayal of your obsession for it. since I started eating healthier, I still do not remove it from my diet. I buy dark chocolate and eat at least one or two chunks of it a day!

I think what should deprive oneself of what really like. But it's always good not to abuse. Anyway chocs are wonderful! I love ice cream with different flavours...:D Well done. GL :) Regs Sunita

Good morning Kina, what a fun read this is. Although now I am compelled to devour some chocolate today which is never a bad thing. And I wouldn't call your love of chocolate an obsession I'd say it's more of an exuberant pursuit of a tasty treat.

Hello Ed, please do enjoy some, it's so much goodness :) I love my chocolate to the moon and back... Lol!
