Note from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle Finder:
The Nashville MC is a pretty curious place and every once in awhile a real gem of a message appears. I can’t always tell if a poem is an original creation or if the person has simply copied words from a song or another source – but regardless, I liked this one because of the “almost saw” and “nearly touched” lines. If my hunch about this being a song is true, let me know.

For You (Here and There)
I swear…
I woke before the light,
Somewhere between the sleep and the wake,
I swear…
I smelled your scent
I almost saw your face
I nearly touched you
I stared across a room,
Daydreaming as I do,
I swear…
I smelled your scent
I almost saw your face
I nearly touched you
As I fell asleep,
In the twilight of a dream,
I swear…
I smelled your scent
I almost saw your face
I nearly touched you
