food is a b***h

i had a crush on food

i was loyal too,

but the food was a playboy 

he had dates on all tables

promising everyone the betrothing fables

i sacrificed my flat tummy

and i cuddled him calling  he is seductively yummy

but, his bisexual orientation was a shock

his fling with sumo wrestlers was now caught

i broke down into tears 

whenever he called me fat 

and this went on for years

i confronted him and fought

his shallow remark did not leave me in any doubt

he said i never told you to devour me

like a lusty s**t

the breakup was harsh

the nights were long

and the temptation was still strong

but

now i have moved on

singing a new song

i found love again

gym is my new spouse

he wiped the tears 

of my body

now i am fit and fab 

i say it loudly

Hi Sakshi! You got it right again! I have also been singing this lament recently, what with my love for devouring a couple of plates of barbequed chicken every other day. Glad to know you could dictch the crooked lover for a new and more sensible one. Now it's my turn.

Kudos on this clever and fun read!

This was extremely clever in it's concept as well as being very funny. Now, how can l classify this poem. Is it erotic ,neurotic or quixotic. Whatever ...... It was great fun.

This was great. Food is the siren for some and it can't be avoided because we need it to live and then it turns on us and has the nerve to criticize! Nice work on this one.
