I close my eyes and try to sleep
but in the midst of night I eat...
...the candy in the other room,
the kitchen' where I go to tune...
..myself in to hungry beast
I must have candy...say the least...
..so here I go around the bend
To blow my diet. hence this trend...
...has got to stop! I must resist
this candy bar or Hershey's kiss.
Satisfied I go back to bed...
the sugar all gone to my head.
Tomorrow is another day
work out, send calories away,
So I can eat tomorrow night.
I try to keep sweets out of sight...
...so I cant remember they are
They're in the kitchen... not so far.

Hey sarah! Its not humorous....for me its a bitter truth, a chronic illness of temptation taking over my stern resolves....i too fall for chocolates at the sight of it....my increasing body weight is a testimony! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Truly..it has the humor..but it also has a deeper meaning.. I thought of the New Year's resolution as I read the poem..discipline should be acquainted all the time... Thanks for sharing this beautiful poem..Happy New year to you!
