Her eyes glistened like granules of sugar under bright light
Her hair flowed softly like warm chocolate might
Her skin was like toffee, though when I dared take a bite
It was for times much sweeter than she.

Her heart shined like gold foil I hadn't yet unwrapped
Her touch lulled like syrup and I soon became trapped
Her words first candy-coated but those quickly were scrapped
It was for times much sweeter than she.

Her cares became much sourer than I wanted to taste
Her sweetness grew moldy and she tossed it with haste
Her love frosted over and she lay it to waste
It was for times much sweeter than she.
