I think I’ve seen you

in a dream.

Did you know

that I’ve seen you

in my dream?

Did you know

that we walked

for hours

on the beach

while sand stuck between our toes

and we just walked

for hours?

I didn’t know

if you’d know

that we walked

for hours

but

I was hoping you would.

Because

I was hoping

you would smile back

when I smiled

at you

and remember

that we walked

for hours

on the beach

while the sand stuck between our toes.

Maybe

your dreams are different.

Maybe

your dreams

are just dreams.

But mine

mine are real.

They are

my reality.

So perhaps

you don’t know

that I’ve seen you

in my dreams.

Perhaps

you don’t know

me.
