I was a stranger

You have a new message
'oh did you forget about me'
no but your picture suggested
we couldn't inhabit the same universe

There was a lunchtime meetup
I tell myself I am not that sort of person
but maybe you were for one wild week
five dates in three days

'I always say I didn't chose acting
acting chose me'

We had a coffee, saw some art, she
invited me to accompany her to an
appointment

'I'm no good at this, I never was'
that's what she said
but I always thought it was my line
