Sweetness Gracious

At loggerheads with your mate? Remember this –

We, each of us are a box of assorted chocolates – flavoured, bitter and sweet. Everytime we’re love-struck, we give away a chocolate from our box. When the love bug is at its mischievous best, our gracious giveaways begin to multiply; eventually leaving our chocolate box empty. Now all we’re left with is assorted fragrance to offer to our love.

And though they’re now a box of bonus chocolates, our companions still stay hungry for more. Crammed with a cream of irritation, they nudge us with the most bizarre doubt – ‘Do you love me no more?’ With our hearts thumping at 180, we wonder how to clear it out. We take in our deepest breath, letting out a saccharine say –

‘I filled you with all of myself,
I poured it all in you;
I wish I was offered some of your chocolates, in turn,
Not all, at least a few!’

Moral of the story –
Expect so much sweetness that you can pass on. Ultimately it’s going to fill your box someday.

Sweet, no? ;-)
