Lost


What man couldn’t get lost.
Sitting there in this dimly lit, almost closed for the night restaurant
Perfectly cocooned in the corner booth
Seemingly lost and not wanting to ask for directions
I would have no problem letting hours slip by just so I could sit here and watch you

Not even the tiramisu, passionately crafted by a mean little pastry chef
could compare to the delicious treat sitting next to me
No smell in the room, not even the perfectly seared and seasoned bistecca
could hold a candle to your delicate and beautiful scent
Not too much, not too little
In just the right proportion so that a subtle breeze would allow just a hint
to blow in my direction
totally lost, tying secretly to deconstruct the aroma filling the air.  
Clean. Exotic. Subtle. Tropical. Intoxicating. Vibrant. Perfect.

Just sitting here admiring, completely lost and not wanting to ask for directions.
