I Saw You

I saw you in a dream I never had sitting on a bench in a depressing slouch face strangeld with tears I saw you in the days that are gone swept away in the receding tide during the duration of a colorless setting sun a sad song sung that day I saw you in the tears I've never shed screaming to break free desspretely seeking shelter from the storm regret stabs at a broken heart I saw you a thousand times today though not figureaitve a fatigued source of thought, conspires against the truth I saw you in the eyes of the others heard your voice above theirs as I wished that they were you, my perfect painted picture was destroyed
