Bitter and sweet, shades from white to black
Love is like chocolate in its multiplicity
In sugary variations for saccharine lovers, it’s
utopian, ambrosial, and lyrical
Characteristics and personalities diverse- its good
both solid and melted
Bitter is as pleasing as sweet, as much heavenly and
gratifying
It reads us like an open book, as if specially catering
to our needs
From nuts to fruits, and sometimes mixed, it comes in
honeyed crunches too.
It can liberate or trap us in a state of trance,
it can
turn us into slaves
The soft texture melting on our tongues, like a
spellbinding kiss
It is almost impossible to resist, and if we find the
one, there’s no turning back
It makes us pine, and crave and want more and more
Sometimes it’s sickeningly diabetic sweet, and drives us
crazy
Yet it is never enough
De-addiction is out of the question once we take the
fall
There are times when we can’t take another bite, but
the next day we want it just as much
All resolutions fail, no matter how motivated, we are
mere puppets.
There is a crazy drive of passion, an obsession that
takes control
It transforms us into possessive neurotics; sharing is
out of the question.
Jealousy abound when it’s in another’s custodianship.
Yet forgive all follies immediately; anger is so short
lived.
Its so satiating that even as a health hazard, one
simply cannot say no.
