My Dear Stranger
"You look crazy,
I like that"
Is it because
My hair is the shade
Of the calm before the storm
Or because my nerves show
On every inch of my body
I have no poker face
Thank you,
Kind stranger
For social interaction
Has depleted to
An occasional pleasant surprise
Plus,
I have a fondness
For being called crazy
It's far less superficial
Than pretty
Or strange
Now my nerves
Are slightly less severe
But I am still working
Picking up the phone
Taking calls that I have
No answer for
I am new
I have no clue what I'm doing
And picking up the phone
Makes me more nervous
Than any stage I've been on
You,
My dear stranger
Did not have these intentions
I will not question
What your intentions were
Because I am just pleased
For the interaction
And your trust in me
To sign for packages
That are not mine
