Broken Compass
I heard you’ve left
Are you really gone?
Your keys on the table
You’ve left the light on
You’re not here
You’re not there
No one thought to convey
Just how long you’d be away
Where are you?
What could you,
Possibly be doing?
Swimming in a sea of blue?
Or lost in a black abyss?
I wish, you wish, we wish
You’d fix your broken compass
I heard you leaveĀ
Did you have to go?
Manipulate your sails
To lead you back home
You’re not upĀ
You’re not down
No one thought to convey
That you’d be so far away
Where are you?
What could you,
Possibly be doing?
Swimming in a sea of blue?
Or lost in a black abyss?
I wish, you wish, we wish
You’d fix your broken compass
Sunrise creeps into shadows
Brightening quiet space
My eyes study your picture
Your smile locked into place
