tryptophan
A young black indian female walks into a coffee shop
The beautiful specimen that she is inside she is out
After ordering a black coffee
She escapes into the back in search of a perfect seat
Sliding into a booth as it is
Natural for her to be alone
It phases her not
Glancing around she sights comfortable leather couches
Grabbing her coffee and bag she attempts to relocate
Her seating
They slide in before her and she returns to her booth
The She was an adorable blonde and slightly timid
The He was a bulky, confident and clearly smitten jock
A first or second date maybe
The game was on, He tore into His sandwich and watched
She stared at her sandwich cautiously biting
Inhaling the moment and being in His presence
He, inhaling the game and bagel sandwich
The indian female watches and sips black coffee
Finally, after a couple of time paced tactful bites
Her body eases and releases tension
The tryptophan in the bagel has done it’s job
The She began to concentrate on the bagel
The goal was no longer to engage or empress
Yet to be full also
We are to be full on more than food on a date
But full nonetheless
Then
The tryptophan in the turkey loses it’s impact
In the end You both take home
healthy portions of leftovers…
impactful conversation and memories.
