Some turn to alcohol
To help them forget,
And many use drugs,
Both prescription and illicit,
I use chocolate
With the same devestating consequences
Only on a much slower timeline.
As the new year dawned
I resolved to embattle myself
With this lover-demon
And to loose its hold over me.
My health I cannot maintain
As long as I imbibe
And there is so much more
That I want from life;
So I abstain,
Sometimes only for a minute
At a time,
And I work out,
Relearning that my body
Is capable of movement,
And I feel Life
Stirring once more.
I wish you the best in your resolution to turn away from temptation and start the New Year off right, by moving, by getting healthier. My problem is not chocolate, it's food ... LOL! Especially pasta and bread. My weakness. An excellent write full of determination and strength. Well done.
If you’re a brave fire eater, aka a Wailer, you’ll find something in The Little Book of RED HOT Chili Pepper Recipes that will tease, sizzle and excite your taste buds.
Chili, pork chops, chicken, beef, fish, egg and veggie dishes—even dess
