Just one of those things, when you open up your freezer or ice-box and find a piece of month old chocolate. It always appears to be frost bit and somewhat discolored. But when you have a taste for sweets, it will do the trick everytime. This piece that I fould and devoured, was a Hershey's minature Dark Chocolate. My favorite kind of chocolate.

Kept for preservation, iced and freezer burned inside and outside. 
Faded and frosted in a foiled wrapper, unfold the sweet love bite. 
Temptation defeats, a sweet-tooth, I concur, I ate the chocolate.

Charles, you should see all the chocolate I have at my house. You would go nuts for it. I shop at Smith's and when they put stuff on sale, such as organic dark chocolate bars for only 50 cents or something, I buy bunches of them!! (now just to eat them all up within two years before they go stale!!) I enjoyed your poem. Congrats for the win
