Shock to overjoyed
From overjoyed to confusion
Comms enabled
Yet scarcely a word to be said
Across the waves of rolling static
*Come in, Alpha
Do you read me,
Alpha?*
A word perhaps
A few in a day
No sign of interference
So what is the cause
Of this near stale air?
*This is Juliet,
Do you read me,
Alpha?
Can you hear me,
Alpha?*
Nothing more than dull static
A well worn lullaby
Playing over and over
Wishing it would stop
Be replaced by content voices
But not all is as dreams tell
Something is amiss
*Will you hear me,
Alpha?*

Juliet to Alpha, do you read me?
