he sends a love signal into the sky

Through broken satellites drifting by

"Is anyone out there with a heart like mine?"

He waits for an answer across the line

Ash in the air, cities gone still

Wires hum softly on every hill

No voices left, no hands to hold

Just rusted dreams and circuits cold

He walks through glass and silent stone

A boy with shadows all his own

Memory flickers a mother’s song

But it’s been silent far too long

He picks up parts from broken ground

A plastic hand, a voice without sound

Each piece reminds him he’s not whole

He keeps them close like they’re his soul

So he sends a love signal into the sky

Through broken satellites drifting by

"Is anyone out there with a heart like mine?"

He waits for an answer across the line

He draws her name in dust and wire

A quiet hope, a small, lost fire

The world is gone, but he still tries

To build her back with hands and eyes

He finds old code in a shattered dome

Builds her face from old chrome

Eyes of light and a synthetic sigh

She says hello but can’t say why

She smiles like someone he used to know

But warmth is something she can’t show

He rewrites her script, again, again

But she fades with every end

Still he sends his love signal high

Through cold dark space where echoes die

And though she’s gone, he won’t resign

A boy still searching through broken time
