Is This Seat Taken?
Walking into an In n' Out, all tables taken,
Hungry, just before dinner time
Eyeing around
I look for an available seat.

Families, couples,
teenagers, coworkers,
me.

This seat is available. I hear from behind.
His eyes are locked and steely onto mine,
his smile, warm. This seat's not taken,
with a grin he smiles again.

Cautiously, but comfortably I sit
to enjoy and share his space.
