BROKEN ANTENNA

Because you were my compass
Reality has become chaotic,
Ordinary time has become extraordinary~
Kinetic,
Energetic,
Nonsensical…

Again the night is filled with static,
Never the soft music of a lullaby 
To safely wrap me in dreams~
Eden has fallen away,
Now only the nakedness of bereavement,
Now only the unending loneliness 
And a pharmacy bereft of cures.
