The Chocolate Man

The chocolate man I want to be
Endorfin maker! Why can't it be me?

Is it jealosy, envy, love, or something else?
Confidence confronted by fear
Confidence will win. It must!

Alas, someone new.
I get to be a chocolate man too!

Wait! Yes? Is that you?
I know
I suppose I always knew
Why do I so often forget?
Perhaps I just needed to hear it from you
You are right
I just needed to be me

Now leave me, nemesis!
Doubt, insecurity, fear, the devil
Call yourself what you will
It matters not
I reject you

I now accept you have not the same feelings for me
Just knowing the next step in life is there waiting
Well, that's good enough...
for me
