Is this a bar of chocolate I see before me ?
It's sweetness towards my mouth !
Come let me taste thee.
I have thee not, yet I smell thee still.
Art thou a mental transgression ?
Or art thou a figment of my dieters mind ?
All of which comes from a sugar oppressed brain.
I see thee in a form so delectable..
For this is what I crave...
Thou hijacked me, whilst I was in the store,
Mine eyes hallucinate , I want you more.
It isn't right, it isn't great for you are there still
But on my teeth there are pieces of chocolate,
That were not there before....
Oh, I have succumbed, I crave no more !!

A very clever parody with mouth watering images to die for. I love how "mine eyes hallucinate" and your concluding confession too!
