Chocolate

White chocolate. There is no darker lie

Because it’s neither chocolate nor white.

True chocolate steals darkness from the night,

It makes you cringe and then it lets you fly

And see the stars

Dark chocolate. The heat of love and lust,

The tender warm caresses, soft as kisses,

Surprise upon surprise, from hits to misses,

It slams you like a wave, a stormy gust

And slowly melts

Oh, how it melts. It’s bitter and it’s sweet,

Apocalypse and heaven all in one

It glides along your tongue – and then it’s gone

A miracle, a memory, a treat

Dark chocolate

White chocolate tries hard to make a mark

With cocoa fat upon a sugar high,

A ghost of real chocolate that died.

If something is supposed to be dark

Don’t make it white
