How hard is it
To disregard sugar rich chocolate treats
Near the front door
Hard
Damned hard
For a recovering chocoholic
Nuts and seeds
Fill in
Second stringers off the bench
Playing over their heads
Thump
Thump
Thump
Another knock
Thanks god, another handful depleted
Take more
Leave me no temptations
But then again
A test of resolve
Is a test worth taking
If I can overcome that
I might be able to overcome
Other foibles
Weaknesses
Flaws
And seek redemption
In your love
