"Chocolate & Me"

I say, "I like fruits and nuts in you",

He says, "Taste me just as I am",

I retort, "You are bitter",

He explains, "You get sweeter after I melt in your mouth".

He has been a friend in dreams,

He has been my partner in mischief,

He has been my delight,

Yet, I don't crave for him!

He makes me smile when I am naughty,

He reminds me of times I had been happy,

He stares at me,

With a darker complexion,

And says, "I am angry".

Then happens a miracle,

I hold my sweet Chocolate,

A perfect wrap of my fingers around,

I take off the covers,

I take my maiden bite.

I close my eyes,

I feel it melt,

And I knew I had been a fool,

Never to break the ice!

My dear Chocolate,

You are better than lover's dream.
